There are a couple of issues with it that I am hoping someone out there can help me with.. 1/ The bridge saddles are REALLY worn out and need sorting. The bridge has S.T BRIDGE stamped on the base, but I cannot find any info at all on it on the internet. Anyone if this is the correct bridge for this model and where i can get a replacement ? or is it possible to just change the saddles ? 2/ I also need to replace the tuners - ideally with like for like. Any suggestions for a set that would fit and not require drilling another set of holes as I would like to stay as close to standard as possible.. 3/ Where can I get a good set of replacement witches hat knobs ? Any advice you guys can give would be gratefully received Cheers   Pitviper Username: Pitviper Registered: 08-2005 Posted on Friday, January 27, 2006 - 6:36 pm:    #1 I picked one up a while back..the ST bridge is original...if you check ebay you can find suitable replacements with some regularity. I don't know where you could just find the saddles..someone here might. #2 no idea #3 I picked up a nice quad set on ebay..almost identicial to the originals. The seller is listed below..don't let the dark top fool you..I was a little worried they would be darker gold...but they are almost an exact replacement.

I hadn't realised you could still get matching replacement tuners, so thats cool. Not sure if i am missing something but i did not get the ebay sellers name.. cheers
