Should basically be compulsory on all fixed bridge guitars. I love that thing. Sounds and feels outstanding.

I've never tried one but it certainly sounds like an excellent product and it's not like they have a track record of producing shoddy gear!

Tonal effect - excellent vibration transmission from the large area contact with the body of each saddle. Very clear (bright and good transient definition) from the same plus the material, and great string definition from the fact that each saddle is effectively a separate coupling to the body.
Also its very easy to set up, and completely controllable with it (all strings have separate intonation and action, which I know isn't unique, but it is nice). On that note, god to I hate bridges where you can't set the intonation of each string. They're just designed incorrectly.

I remember it being very comfortable. Regarding bridges that you can't intonate, that is the main reason I dislike telecasters. The way they look doesn't help either. |

Yeah, I love schaller hardware. Where they do something that will do the job, I generally go for it. Respectable second place to gotoh (or first place in the case of floyd style trems, until I learned kahler make one, since while the schaller is very good and schaller make the OFR as basically a cheap version of their own, the gotoh is about as good and much cheaper).
