I'm sure those rollers in the saddles are amazingly smooth at that price.

Go for it - I'm not sure which would be more fun, the high quality rollers, the incorrectly angled pickup hole, the 3 screw maybe/maybe not modern American standard mounting holes, or the combination of those saddles with offset top loading string holes. Possibly a good fit for one of those GFS bodies.
 
Meh.

This is nicer...

Humility makes me want to disagree, but I really can't. In all fairness though, it did cost considerably more than $13, and it has that "Dangerous" mojo!  :headbang1:
 
You wouldn't believe the epic cheapness of the pre-wired controls I bought for this thing. I did splurge on a traditional ashtray bridge by wilkinson. Probably the phantom 3rd shift but still... It is on a boat right now....
 
I think I saw wallpaper on HGTV that would go great with that Tele bridge  :icon_jokercolor:  jk kidding, Jk kidding
 
reminds me of Gotoh's "luxry art collection". while fancy, I don't think they would qualify as cheap

claim to be made in Korea , but I think it made in China .

i dig the roller saddles, but three screws/mounting holes? That'll only work on a american standard tele rout. It's super dank looking, but I hope they make it in the vintage 4 hole style.
