Thanks Dru, I came upon Halon by chance. I was looking for a bridge that would have offset saddle screws, and slots in the back (like my Zemaitis bridges). I wanted offset saddle screws so the strings wouldn't touch the screws, which is why I had to cut the screws on the last bridge. And I wanted slots so the strings wouldn't touch the back of the bridge! Getting the playing height, with proper intonation, on a Jaguar is a balancing act!

And thanks for the nice words about my playing

How long did it take to ship from Greece?

Again, fantastic playing, and tone too!

4 or 5 days, I paid 32 Euros for quicker shipping. Thanks, this guitar is a ball to play. I took it to my solo gig yesterday, and played it through an amp sim patch (twin reverb, optical trem, spring reverb) that I made for it on my HX stomp. It absolutely killed! People went nuts for a surf medley I played.

This story just gets better and better! Really happy to hear this.
