This bridge ups the ante on the Nashville Bridge concept and is head-and-shoulders above the typical import bridge in quality. It is a direct replacement, requiring no modifications to install. The saddle travel length is slightly longer, and the saddles are secured using small bolts. However the body of the bridge locks to the posts via two small set screws on the sides of the bridge.
The results are pretty dramatic. No buzzing, no rattling. The bridge is coupled perfectly to the posts, it won't move even with the strings off. This results in increased sustain and harmonics, better intonation, better tone.
Once you try Tone Pros hardware, you're hooked - I've got them on all my guitars - solidbodies, hollowbodies, bridge/tailpiece combos, wrap arounds, whatever. Never disappointed. People spend all kinds of money on pickups and electronics, try a couple of bucks on the string path and listen to the difference. Won't be disappointed, must-have upgrade for import hardware.
