When I get my baby re-fretted I will get a brass compensated 3 saddle bridge. Don't know when that will be because it needs a new nut if I want to put jumbo frets on it.

The Wilkinson compensated barrel bridges don't mount onto American Standard Teles without drilling new holes (American Standards have a 3 hole pattern instead of the vintage 4 hole) and I'm not ready to do that to my baby. I actually ordered a Wilkinson a while ago without knowing that and had to cancel when I found out. The only other vintage style bridges I could find that are compatible with my American Tele are the Glendale and Callaham, but they're just too expensive for a bridge replacement.

I saw a picture of a really nice Tele with the Gotoh 6-saddle bridge the other day and I liked it enough to cave on the purchase. We'll see how it goes, I'm installing it tonight, I'll post pictures after the weekend, I think it's going to look great, hopefully it doesn't alter the performance / tone much.

Pretty, what's the story?

I played the piano for years as a child, really wanted to play the guitar, though - got an Ibanez Roadstar II for Christmas when I was 11 and two years later an Ibanez Axstar - that was a sick guitar and they're really hard to find these days, I kick myself for ever selling it. I stopped playing during high school and three years ago decided to pick-up where I had left off, I now own a Schecter Blackjack ATX-C1 with SD Blackouts and a Jackson SLXT - I took the EMG HZ out of the bridge and threw a DiMarzio X2N in there.

^Thats some quality.^

I bought a Roadstar off of my brother for $40 a long time ago, but then traded it for a keyboard that got lost in gigging hell. Pretty decent guitars.

Here's a sample of it:

This amp melts my heart, I've been waiting so long for tone like this.

Beautiful stuff! Put a big smile on my face. Tone to die for.

Mixing and recording: Focusrite Liquid 56 running through a Mac pro. Logic Pro X recording software.
Monitor: Yorkville NX55P
Guitar and other strings: Fender Strat U.S., 2 Gibson six string acoustic, cheap crappy bass, learning to play a Fender banjo.
Effects: Zoom G5
Amp: Traynor Ironhorse 40 watt Tube running though a Line6 2X 12 cab.

The recording is new to me and it's a tough learning curve. I've been playing guitar for 22 years. I've been in a few bar bands along the way but I'm just interested in writing and recording my stuff right now.
