About the bridge, someone at GFS, knew how far to put the saddles on the Wilkinson Roller bridge, it came out of the box perfectly intonated .
The other two for my 1974 Gibson LPC and 1971 Gibson Flying V, both only needed slight adjustment on the G and D string .
The Wilkinson Roller Bridge is far better than style of Gibson / Epiphone bridge. Like a Tone Pro, the Wilkinson locks down at the mounting post, as well as the saddles.
The tuning stability improved by at least 85% and with the Schaller tailpiece with fine tuners, making ease of tuning just inches away ( instead of 2 ft.) , I can do two Whole step bends and not going out of tune .
After installing the roller bridge and the fine tuning tailpiece, my two LPC's and Flying-V's tuning stability improved by 85 % - 90% .
Interesting. I don't know if I could deal with the appearance, but the engineering looks sound.
Do you lock it down at the head like a Floyd or still have the conventional nut and tuners?
