LesPaul trapeze bridge

I've seen these on ES models too, I always thought the strings were inserted towards the butt and wrapped over the bridge. Now I've seen pictures that show the trapeze strung straight through, like a stop tailpiece.... Any thoughts? John

The original Les Paul tail/bridge had the strings inserted from the front and wrapped under the bridge. Not the best way to do it. There are several aftermarket tails that have the strings go over the bridge.
