Tele bridge recommandation

I have a Glendale plate with compensated brass saddles on my warmoth. It works good

That would look fucking awesome on a black Tele. Just sayin.
Can you link that so I can see how over priced it probably is?
Edit: I see it on Ebay for $80. That's not bad at all.

I'm glad you could find it. I saved it for future reference and forgot to save a link .

One of my friend's was trying to make his Tele 'correct' and he kept seeing Glendale as the way to go. I can't remember what he went with.

This was my favorite Wilkinson Tele bridge, but they don't make them anymore.

I'm the anti-traditionalist. I like the Babicz bridge so much that I doubt I'd consider anything else. Saddles lock in place, and the height adjustment is a cam system that's really easy to precision adjust and maintains full contact with the bridge plate.

Definitely not the cool option, but I like it.

I’m fine with 3 saddles, but if you’re intonation obsessed, 6 is def the way to go.

Besonite, better than Mastery IMO.

My 3 saddle bridge is intonated within 2c. Close enough for me

@Chad, lol, you confused the hell out of me. Had me thinking I didn’t know how many saddles on a trad tele bridge. After I posted this I had to go look and mine and count to see if I was right about mine having 3.

No, I have a Mastery on my current Tele (which is 2 saddles) and if they were in stock, it's what I would be getting for this next one. I still have probably 8 weeks until I get the body for mine, so maybe they will be in stock then.

I've been playing my tele unplugged every day for about the past 2 months. I still like the Gotoh Modern bridge.

That’s another reason I love the mastery. I play unplugged all the time and it sounds really good.

I see those on Wish and I've been tempted to order a set. I have a black Tele body they would look very nice on.
I'm not sure the pickups would be that great for as cheap as the whole set is, but for the other hardware alone, it's a very good deal.

I was playing my Squier last night (flatwound 11's in open D) unplugged with the ashtray on, and was getting these weird, cool harmonics and if I bumped my hand against the ashtray repeatedly it had a tremolo effect. Way cool. Completely disappeared when I took the cover off.
