AO thimbles
According to mastery website, av 62 and 65 bridge thimbles are differenf from American Original. Has anyone noticed any difference? So i guess we need to change the thimbles to use mastery bridge.

Re: AO thimbles
That sounds weird. American Vintage 62 and 65 have the 0054460000 bridge assembly ..

Re: AO thimbles
I’m going to be perfectly honest. I have a mastery on my AO, the thimbles fit just fine. But I am not happy with the mastery at all. I’m switching back to the original bridge because tuning stability was better and this damn mastery buzzes on certain notes when using the tremolo. I had zero issues with the original setup.
