Is it just my eyes or is the string holder



not quite parallel with the bridge?

You're right, it's obvious on all three on Sweetwater's site plus their extra stock in Red and Inverness. I wonder why.

Maybe it is. But unnecessary, since the bridge is wide enough for proper intonation.

Alan has a perm too then?

No, it's definitely the tailpiece. I printed out one of the large Sweetwater images and measured. The bridge is parallel to the pickups, the tailpiece is slightly farther away on the G string side.

Hey, it's a nice shade of red, I only have a Cherry Studio to keep it company - I need another Thunderbird!
