Roller vs Tune-O-Matic?

[JK]

what are the advantages/disadvantages of a roller bridge like the Schaller 475 and the advantages of a tune-o-matic like the Gotoh? I'm trying to decide between the two. The bridge will be on a single pup (sd phat cat p-90) strat.

One thing is that you have the option to change the string spacing on a 475.

have a look at my myspace.../neilsguitarworks....the schaller units are a joy to work with.I used one on a Prince cloude guitar for a customer.
Its amazingly easy to use and set up...just get some of the abrasive cord from stewmac.com to smooth things out....I used rolled up 600 grit and it took for ever to radius and smooth the saddle slots. :blob7:
