Is anything relating to that bridge even correctly?

The reason I ask is that I've never seen saddles that have needed to be that far back on a properly located bridge.

Can you post a good clear pic of the whole guitar?

I like top loading strat style bridges.

He did that last fret get cut off or are they inlay stickers?

Re: you know you're a hack guitarist when....

That's the grossest bridge I've ever seen. I love it.

If it plays comfortably and sounds good, that's all that matters.

those are stickers k, i would never cut a fret out, actually i've tried to add frets, just never got an idea that could work on practice

Re: you know you're a hack guitarist when....

have you tried gluing coat hanger wire to the top of the neck pickup?

yep, that was one of the ideas, the lack of a neck pickup was the major problem though

What does that actually do?

Re: you know you're a hack guitarist when....

well a quick shot of how the guitar sounds, i hope this redeems the bad look of the bridge and my redneck style fix

My 62RI needs the low E saddle nearly flush to the bridge plate.

Actually sounds pretty good. I was thinking so nasty looking as that bridge was, it wouldn't have much sustain at all.

Do you consider yourself more of a Sennheiser then?
