First, hello! I'm new here. Just joined the forums.
The bridge on this Deluxe is pretty crooked from the factory! Is the QC on the Mexican models usually this bad or did mine slip through the cracks?
It actually plays really well and the intonation is good. I didn't even notice for a while until I started looking into shortening the saddle height adjustment screws because they dig into my palm a little.
Compare the alignment of top edge of the bridge to the pickguard and bridge PU which are straight. Yikes!
Here's the whole thing.
I'm thinking about putting a bridge more like the original '72s on this one now. Any thoughts or suggestions on that?
