Nice Birds! So what was the "dismay" when the bass first arrived??
Looks great! I love those old school speed knobs!
This thread is useless without photos.
Personally I'd never put a Hipshot bridge on a T Bird, yes it's well designed but the aesthetics leave me
norway is ground zero for lots of bands like this.

There is nothing like a good deed done, my young limey. Where may I kiss you first?
Unless you are a Nikki fan, the only reason to own a Blackird is that it is - for whatever reason - leaner sounding than any other TBird I know or own. It sounds almost thin over a small rehearsal amp, but just right and very cutting over a large rig. A bass for stadiums.
PS: While also part of the three point bridge liking minority here, I do like the way the Supertone looks on your whitey. I only put a Supertone on my Blackbird so I would have at least one TBird with that replacement bridge. I like the looks, but the sustain gain is minimal (not that you would need sustain gain on a TBird anyway) and I'm fine with the adjustment possibilities of a three point. But the Supertone is a nice modern bridge all the same.
