Talk about your instrument/gear!!! (blues, drum, bass, funk)

Hi Guys,

My name is Scott. The bender on this guitar is my design. Found the thread through the referral links on my site. I also used to own the guitar in question. The bender installed is a standard over the top bender, just with vintage style saddles. I put the guitar together to test out vintage saddles and top loading with the bender.

The bender is primarily designed to be a back loader and can be set up as such with either the included modern saddles (graphtech string saver classics) or vintage saddles.

Besides replacing the bridge when I acquired it I also redid the wiring as it was a mess. The new configuration is: 5-way switch, 1 volume, 1 tone, neck-on switch with 500k ohm pots.

Cheers,
Scott
