I like those. I hate my strat bridges with their sharp little grub screws sticking out the top....always pissed me off. You pay that much for a Strat and you get a crappy bridge? Sheesh

Go for a Callaham and you'll never fail!

I've been considering a block, bridge plate and arm for one of my Strats from them for my '57 RI, but I'll still use the original saddles.

This can be a big improvement, also mixing Callaham and Fender or Gotoh parts.
The plate and the virtual pop-in tremolo arm are the biggest part of that improvement.
I have been using Callaham products for a few years and would never go back.
They're a little expensive, I know....but quality is very high.

Now I'm curious to test those Highwood saddles...

Nice Axe Max!! I like the soft edges where the bridge is routed and where the knobs are set into the body, very nice.

I also like the way the luthier used the maple cap as a faux binding....I have that on my Les Paul Studio (pic below)

Yep, that's a great guitar indeed.
That carving on the top, soft edges included, is 100% done by hand.

I love the "natural binding" effect too...I've it on my 1987 PRS Custom and on another two "made in Italy" guitars as well.

I'll meet you there Harley, we'll start a retirement band and do some Geriatric Choreography like ZZ Top

Am I invited to join???

C'mon Max, you think I'm gonna leave my Paesan? NO way! You're in, just set your gear up on stage right

I packed my MP-1 and the Frudua GFK and booked my flight, Paisà!!!  :banana-jazz-smiley-emoticon:

There are shorter replacement allen screws for strat bridges. I may look for some of those.

Hey Max, yes they are Highwood, he bought them from StewMac https://www.stewmac.com/parts-and-hardware/bridges-and-tailpieces/bridges-and-tailpieces-for-electric-guitar/highwood-contoured-vintage-saddles-for-strat---set-of-6.  Really well made saddles, albeit not cheap @$92 AUD.
