Hooray!
The Dusenberg bridge fits my 90s Samick Sheraton II perfectly. The posts from Philidelphia Luthier Supply made it a totally bolt on experience. No more rattly junk on the guitar. I also had a bone nut cut and installed at the same time.
What a huge upgrade!
better sustain
even sustain across all strings at all fret positions
clarified note separation on chords
much bigger and clearer harmonic content
Even before this upgrade I still wouldn't trade this guitar for any Gibson DOT or 355 (or any 3 series)I ever played.
Next some new tuners and a tailpiece. I will have flipped it completely from worn out cheapy gold parts to quality silver looking stuff. The resale value of the instrument won't be any higher but since it isn't going to be resold in my lifetime, who cares. I've owned a bunch of electric guitars over the past 45 years. Some of them have a resale value of 7x this Sheraton. The Sheraton is the best instrument I've ever owned and one of the best electric guitars I've ever played.
