Beautiful, but not an upgrade
Bought this bridge for it's beautiful vintage relic look. Was hoping the quality will be the same or even better than my stock Fender bridge but I was very disappointed as I'm used to see quality products from Gotoh.
The mounting was extremely easy, but I had problem with intonating strings as saddles in these bridges tend to stuck and wiggle around. Saddle screws were extremely loose from the start and as I play with low action I was afraid they would fall off at some point and they did, within first few hours.
Definitely would not recommend to someone that is not ready to deal with these problems or would want an upgrade from stock bridge. It is a beautiful bridge but not as quality as expected and definitely not worth the price.
If you do decide to buy this bridge, I definitely recommend putting tape around saddle screws or transparent nail polish so it doesn't fall off.
