Tuners are crap. Bridge is crap. pickups aren't terrible IMHO, but you guys would hate them. My body had a crooked neck pocket and all the other routes were crooked with the neck. This is how mine ended up:

i dont mind changing the tuners, or whatever else. but im also looking at a tele too(deluxe) and i dont know where i can buy a replacement tele bridge that has top loading strings.

yours looks good. reminds me of susan tedeschi

I had to chop the stock bridge in half because I had the same issue. I think they make a Saga kit with string through though for $20 more.

Guitarfetish has a wilkinson ashtray bridge that can go either way that I was thinking of getting and hacking in half.

But if I could do it again, I would not get this kit.
