skydog52 Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 What bridges and stop pieces do the boys and girls use at Parsons St. on 535s and 555s? I should know this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mgoetting Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 I'm guessing Schallers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tulk1 Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 They've recently made the switch to TonePros as the goto bridge/tailpiece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brentrocks Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 I have seen Gotoh, Schaller, and tone pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectrum13 Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 I have seen Gotoh, Schaller, and tone pro When I got into Heritage in 2007, they had stopped using Schallers and the goto was Gotoh. Gotoh makes tone pros. The only difference I can detect on the nashville bridge between the tonepros and gotoh are the locking screws. If they now use tonepros standard (was a $100 upcharge in 2008) are they using the locking stoptail studs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an upcharge on the Millie in 2009. They just said, "sure" on the Prospect earlier this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skydog52 Posted June 27, 2010 Author Share Posted June 27, 2010 Thanks guys for the information. When I do my next string change, are these pieces of hardware marked somewhere? I went on various sights but can't see anything marked. The Gotoh and Schaller tailpieces look very similar. Found specs, I guess I could get my calipers out and make sure.
