The go-to for a lot of custom builders this has a brass plate and steel saddles and modern 52.5mm string spacing. Hardtail Strats, fat teles, La Cabs, this is a very versatile bridge (and a direct drop in replacement on the Squier Vintage Modified La Cabronita).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.axecaster.co.uk\/images\/GTC202.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft\" title=\"Gotoh GTC202 Telecaster bridge\" src=\"http:\/\/www.axecaster.co.uk\/images\/GTC202.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"187\" \/><\/a>The <a title=\"Fender modern 6 saddle Telecaster bridge\" href=\"http:\/\/www.axecaster.co.uk\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=38&amp;products_id=121\" target=\"_blank\">Fender version<\/a> is a great value bridge but I couldn&#8217;t overlook the <a title=\"GVotoh GTC202 telecaster bridge\" href=\"http:\/\/www.axecaster.co.uk\/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=12_37&amp;products_id=227\" target=\"_blank\">GTC202<\/a>.

You see, sometimes <a title=\"Teaser\" href=\"https:\/\/axecaster.co.uk\/blog\/?p=1704\" target=\"_blank\">my teasers<\/a> do lead to a payoff!

That leads me to a question &#8211; would you prefer bulk packed for a few pounds less than retail packaged? On the bridges it would also mean a saving on shipping which I could pass on as lower purchase price.
