cheapest New Genuine Fender®
Telecaster® / Esquire® Vintage '52 Type "Pat.Pend." Bridge Plate with Double Long Notched Flanges & Drilled for Top Loading.
This is a Standard Fender 50's Style Chrome Bridge Plate that fits all Vintage 60's, 70's, 80's and on up to current Reissues, MIM, CIJ, MIJ and Newer Highway One's® with (4) mounting screw holes and "Strings thru Body".
NOTE: Does not fit the American Standard/Series.
The Screw Spread Dimension is 2-9/16" center to center to the (2) outer-most holes. The String Spread Dimension is the Standard 2-1/8 inches "E" to "E".
The Bridge Plate has been modified by "Long Notching" the Flanges for Maximum picking clearance near the Bridge Pickup. This Mod eliminates the parts of the Vintage Style Telecaster® Bridge that you've been catching your pick on, or banging your knuckles on. The Notched-Areas are then polished smooth to match the rest of the bridge plate.
The Bridge Plate has also been modified by drilling (6) additional String holes in the rear Flange, so the Plate can be used as a Top Loading Plate as on a '59 Model Telecaster.
This Bridge Plate will accept any Stock or "Aftermarket" 3-pc. Saddle Set.
Mounting screws are not included. An instruction sheet on how to re-set your intonation is in the package.
I also have Complete "Double-Notched" Bridges with a set of Custom Fitted "Angle Compensated" Saddles.
