i had a long discussion with my friends about the bridge.

i went over budget and bought like 3-4 bridges for this guitar. and it came down to the vintage ashtray with the 3 brass saddles.

Its what tele purists swear by for the tele tone. i almost lost my head in that discussion.

-

as for intonation its a little bit wierder. i would have the open g a little sharp and the open d a little flat. as of right now it plays and sounds in tune.

heres a link of both the neck and bridge pickup. mp3

no effects. guitar straight into my blues deville 4x10

let me know what you guys think.

as requested =D

wassup mitch,

regarding the binding and f hole:

i really didnt want to cut into the koa top. its just so pretty. and bindings would have been a pain.
