Product reviews for Rutters Modern Bridge

I scored an odd Telecaster that's a mid 90s MIM Squier. After some research  these are the predecessoer to what we all know as MIM Teles today for about 3 years. Actually quite a good quality guitar with the exception of the tuners and bridge, Being a top loader and having six individual octagon saddles it's an odd bird. This bridge was an excellent upgrade with brass saddles. Fit and quality is great and the intonation is perfect.

I scored a MIM standard Telecaster for $125 years ago, which was a sweet deal but the weakest part of that guitar was the bridge, which had six barrel-type saddles. The MIM Teles up to '97 are curious beasts in that they have no holes for string-thru loading. Also, the bridge is the same three-screw footprint as the American Standard. I was at a loss until I discovered this bridge from Rutters. Easy installation, and it totally transformed the tone of the guitar. Best upgrade I could have made, and now it is a very unique axe. Thank you!
