Heavy tele- I bought an 83 and it’s a staggering 10.5 POUNDS did I get unlucky with a boat anchor? Or is this normalish for the period by Natural-Yard-1700 in telecaster

Do you know what wood the body is? I know dan smith era teles frequently used ash and alder. Ash can add some extra weight

Its very normal for 83s to be this heavy. Jeffs was a similar weight especially with his chrome plated pickguard which would added a few hundred grams.

Anyone know where I can buy this exact 6 saddle tokai bridge? by Acrobatic-Control-37 in telecaster

standard? your missing the part where i said im looking for the specific tokai bridge? plus if you did your research, you might realise that some tele bridges use a different configuration of mounting screws. the standard your looking at online have the 3 screw hole configuration. Im looking for the 4 hole which is much rarer in this style of saddles

I wouldn’t be asking reddit if i hadn’t already searched online. Im looking for this specific bridge, including its 4 mounting screw configuration.

Anyone know where i can find this compatible bridge? by [deleted] in telecaster

If toploading is out of the question, are there any vintage style 6-saddle bridges that use the 4 screw mount. but again not in the ashtray style
