This is the finest wraparound bridge that I' ve found. Not thrilled, especially at the price point! It might also be how rough the plating is where the saddles are meant to glide. Not thrilled with that, but now it works. A bit of oil and a LOT of screw turning finally got things working. While this bridge looks and fits well, 5 of the 6 saddle adjustments are somehow bound, as if cross threaded in manufacture.

Luthier Tool & Supply made things right, replacing the anomaly I received, and I' m thrilled. I' d buy it again and I' d buy it over competitive offerings from Gotoh etc. It' s expensive, not as cool looking as the stock wrap-around, but the guitar intonates much better up and down the neck, even though the stock bridge wasn' t too bad. Unlike the stock bridge, this doesn' t tilt toward the nut and makes snug contact with the posts. The upside is that the bridge will sit fully onto the posts - there' s so much adjustment in the saddle travel that the hex screws were not needed to pull the bridge back. Fit and finish are excellent, but you' ll give up a bit of sustain compared to the stock Gibson wrap tailpiece / bridge, in exchange for accurate intonation. You' ll need a long screwdriver with the blade sides filed to the width of the screw slot to avoid damage to the saddle adjuster screws as they are quite snug.

Bamburgh House in Market Street will also be torn down as part of the development. In June, Commercial Union House was torn down, changing the landscape of the city centre by enabling people to have an unobstructed view of Pilgrim Street for the first time in 50 years. Work began to clear the area as soon as the Stack food and drink hub closed its doors to customers in May after four years of trading. The new nine-storey office block is being brought forward by the Reuben brothers, and will wrap around Pilgrim Street, Market Street, New Bridge Street West and John Dobson Street.
