It looks like reviews are mixed on this item. My experience was very good. Quality of the bridge seems fine and the colouring is good. It��s a pale gold color.Installed in my Squire Vintage Tele so I could replace the standard Tele bridge pickup with a Humbucker. There is a fair bit of work involved. The routing for the Tele bridge pickup will not fit a humbucker. I used a chisel set. New holes will also need to be drilled to mount the bridge. The holes for the string through lined up perfectly. In all, using a variety of tools it took me an afternoon. Not bad for the results.
