I have the screw type, but I dont know if the bushing type is better. Any thoughts?

As an engineer, I would naturally assume that the screw type are more easily adjusted for height, etc. but would naturally be a weaker joint by nature. They also seem to me to run the risk of splitting any wood not predrilled exactly right.

The pressed bushing type seem to be, from what I have studied lately (on my own project's layout), the way to go. The depth of the press fit bushing has to be exact and the angle and location of the cut have to be exact on either one. My only concern is ease of replacement/removal, etc. without risk of tearing up the guitar.

Correct me if I am wrong, please.

Just my $.02.

Thank you. As for removal of bushings, it is fairly easy if you follow the tutorial on the main site.
