tele with new design tele bridge

[Hendrix]

want to change this back to tele bridge , but the tradition one so stereotyped , so I design a new one for it .

Interesting.  I'd watch that lower 'wing' on the treble side just under the pickup.  The metal lip on a traditional bridge interferes with playing.  It's enough of a pain that some folks cut it away (Like the Joe Barden bridge).

that is for some one always touch the volume control ?

I will try it when it ready .

no - your pick hits the lip when you're picking on the high e-string.  It's kinda annoying.

I generally prefer the modern no-ashtray-lip bridges for that reason.

another thought:  You could move the lower wing back a bit, kinda of like the old triumph badges:

Kinda gives it a speed look 

 

[Hendrix]

yes , it a speed look .

a test run

Bad Ass! :rock-on:

But I will echo the common sentiment of the treble side "wing" as well.

If you scoop it like the Barden Version IMO it would still retain the "Wow!" factor you've gone for,
And still meet the practicality of use and playability.

If you scoop it like the Barden Version, only symmetrically, IMO it would still retain the "Wow!" factor you've gone for,
And still meet the practicality of use and playability.
