Glad to see Fender moving away from the "bent steel" saddles design and more towards the Gotoh style with their new American Elite series. My American Standard came with the bent steel style saddles and they were literally cutting my strings at bridge, there was a manufacturing issue where every once in a while a Telecaster would make it through with burs on these saddles, mine was one of them. Even after carefully filing down the saddles twice it was still an issue, ended up replacing them with Gotoh saddles, and now it looks like Fender is doing the same, hopefully with the entire 6 saddle Tele lineup. They're comfier on the right hand too when muting strings.
