If this isn't allowed here please let me know and I'll just put it in for sale -

I received my bridge that I ordered a few months back but now I don't want to keep it due to my current financial situation being less ideal than what it was. If anyone doesn't want to wait for one from Hipshot I'll sell mine brand new for the same price. I have 150+ positive references on ebay and other forums.

It's a shame, looks and feels wonderful next to my stock RG7421 bridge..

Also, thanks again Adam for putting all this together.

Dude, you have (PM) mail....

Nope, you got it right for now. Can also contact the poster right above you if you'd like to get it sooner. Sorry to see so much flux with you guys, but it's a great thing there's enough interest in this that the bridges can find a new home.:hbang:

Hey Adam! Got the bridge and saddles today. Thanks alot! I'll put together a video of before and after a little later tonight when i get the chance to install. I'm going to carefully remove and try to reuse the same strings i have on here to give everyone an exact before and after comparison. Thanks again!!!

Ok everyone, so here are the two videos i did of before and after the bridge install. Like i say in the video descriptions, I used the same preset from POD Farm 2, same strings and the pickup height is the same. Nothing else was changed other than the bridge. :) Although after shooting the video I loosened the strings and added 4 of the smallest extra springs from the saddles under the pickups so i could adjust the height. They had no springs and were all the way to the body. lol

Before:


After:


The main thing i notice is everything sounds brighter and more defined. Especially the low B when making anykind of chord. It's tuned to drop A in these vids. With the BKP Aftermath's being so clear it only helps it sound even better. Plus, when i tune i don't get the tuner going all over the place like i did before. Definitely worth it. Hope this helps some of you guys make up your minds. Adam, thanks a ton!!! :shred:

Wrong list, that's the previous order :lol: I can have Hipshot mill it for piezo saddles too if you'd like, only a slight bit more.

Ooops, well I'd like to be added to the current list! And I'd also like the piezo wire holes drilled as well, how much more for that?

Hmmm... I thought I was in there. I did sign up some weeks ago. I have a 7621, and want the bridge with saddles.
