I have a friend that has one
on his guitar, yes.
Well, it's a hardtail strat bridge, so it's mostly the saddles that leave something to be desired. The nice thing about that design is that you can upgrade saddles without replacing the whole thing. The bridge itself is just the hunk of metal screwed to the body and at least on mine is fine (no plating wearing off, no misaligned holes, etc).
Thanks!
The body is quite a bit thinner, I haven't measured but the internet says 35mm. That's 13mm thinner than a regular Mustang.
Yeah the Cross Guitars plate is great! I found it just a bit too expensive for this on the cheap build!valley_parade wrote: ↑Wed Jun 12, 2019 5:13 amOne option that's out there, and most likely what I'll do if/when I get a Bullet to mess around with: our very own Cross Guitars makes a drop-in bridge plate that's designed like an old Duo Sonic bridge.

Drilling for the ferrules was one of the most nerve-racking things I've ever done to an already finished guitar but it turned out pretty good (had some paint chip out sadly but meh it's a project guitar anyway)!
Never tried a bullet mustang, but most of my old UK weirdos (Burns, Weill, Vox etc) are 35mm thick, and that's absolutely plenty. Some low end UK Vox stuff is a hair under an inch, and that's pushing it a bit, but they are still functional guitars. Normal Fender thickness feels excessive to me now
No that'll work too.
