Just wanted to tell you that this Breezy of mine has become my first guitar, I really, really love it. Don't care anymore about the manufacture year or the fact that it is an export model, it's simply great!! And the Callaham bridge is a sound enhancement, wow!! My guitar teacher wanted to buy my Breezy :wink:

Could you tell me more about the Callahan bridge? Any pics? I fitted a Gotoh 6 saddle bridge to my 88 Fender Japan Custom 62RI Tele soon after I bought it in 1989.
I assumed that I wouldn't be able to cope with the standard vintage style Tele bridge, though recently I got another Tele and left the ordinary 3 saddle bridge on it. Much to my surprise, it isn't a problem for me.

So, here we go:

The bridge wasn't cheap at all, paid 144 Euro for it (oops..), but it's worth every cent!!! More singing tone and sustain. This model is the enhanced one with brass saddles (because of the maple neck, I didn't take steel).
ACMEguitars in the US sells them also.

OMG - you paid that for a bridge? Wow....
Interesting bridge, I assume you wanted to retain the vintage look, unlike my Gotoh? I like the cutaway on the surround next to the top string. In just the right place to stop you catching the pick on it. Clever - mind you, it should be for that money!

Yeah, but I think, that's only the high price we have to pay in Germany.. :roll: Because of this high price I made an agreement with the shop and could have sent it back. But there was no reason... :wink:
It's so good that I'm thinking of buying a bridge and trem for my Strat, too from Callaham.....
