Holes for pots wrong
The quality is good but the plate that holds the vol, bass and selector switch were out of alignment and too small for new or old pots. Luckly, I was able to correct the alignment and size with my drill press.

Add clearly shows dual string mount options but only offers through body string mounting
It's a beautiful piece add shows holes for through bridge and through body string mounting the bridge only has through body mounting holes I will atempt to drill the holes myself at this point I don't think I want to drill holes in the body of my guitar who knows maybe later I will😎

Not an exact fit, but worth the modification work.
The bridge pick-up hole does not exactly match the angle of the factory plate. It is slightly closer to perpendicular with the strings. Because of the angle difference, the body cut-out for the pick-up did not align. The pick-up would not fit back into the body without modifying the body cavity.I used a small hand router (Dremmel) to shave off about 1/4 of an inch along the top side of the pick-up cavity to make it fit.The factory screw mount holes also do not align. I had to drill new holes for the mounting screws.I put about an hour into carefully modifying the guitar to fit the new bridge plate.The volume/switch plate also didn't fit into the pick guard. I used a round file to open the curve in the pick guard to fit that plate. That was about another half hour.Once installed the bridge action and intonation set-up was a breeze. It was pretty close to my preferred set-up right out of the box. The guitar plays just as good, if not better with the new bridge. No change in tone or sound of the guitar that I can tell.I think it turned out great. I'm very happy with the look. I've gotten tons of compliments on it, and even an offer to buy the guitar. I'm keeping it!

Awesome improvement for my $75.00 Chinese Telecaster
Pros: KILLER looks, I modded the electronics to have a 5 way Fender Strat 5 way switch (which fit perfectly) and I just bought new 250k Pots and wired this with a Reverse Phase and my custom Tone and Volume Control circuitry....and I kept the cheap Chinese Pick ups too. Even the Saddles are cool, Brass Rollers and it IS a body through string Bridge.Cons: There were some problems, I also replaced the Chinese White Pick guard, with a Chinese Black Pearl, so nothing really fit right, I had to modify the pick guard to fit the neck, then to fit the switch/knob plate cut out. I had to drill two front holes in the Bridge and screw it to the body ( at the base of the Pick guard) to get it to lay flat, there were no holes as shipped. The Bridge and Switch Plate might fit if you don't change the Pick Guard...?Overall: If you're here looking at this item, you KNOW that if it's NOT 100% Fender, it's NOT going to fit 100% on a REAL Fender.So if you're looking to trick out a TeleCopy, this will please you.

DOES NOT FIT FENDER SQUIER TELECASTER
I wanted to write this review to warn those who want to use this with a Squier Telecaster. It did not fit mine out of the box. There is a slight angle to this that makes it not fit right out of the box. I used a dremel tool with a sanding bit on the end and sanded out what I needed in my telecaster for the pickup to fit. I then sealed the exposed wood and used copper tape on the holes to get a more professional feel.Overall, I would only recommend this if you are okay working on your guitar in depth to get this to fit. Yes, it does look good but this is not for a novice guitar guy to just toss on his Fender Squier Telecaster.

Poor Finish Quality Good for Low cost build
This bridge set and switch plate looked good online. When I received them the chrome finish on the bridge was very rough and in places the brass from the bridge was showing through. The construction appeared to be good and all the parts looked to be made well. Fit to the body was not right because the string through holes did not match to rear bridge-plate mounting screws. Not an issue if you are planning on mounting on a new build or don’t mind filling the screw holes on the body and starting from scratch. This is intended to replace six saddle bridges with string-through body models. Three saddle bridges being replaced with this may require more modifications and fitting. Bridge also did not match up square with bridge pickup and neck alignment. Simple routing of the bridge pickup hole could fix this. Compared to factory six saddle bridge this bridge is lacking the front two screw holes. That covers the bridge. The switch plate had a whole set of other issues. The holes for the pots were too small for custom Emerson 1/4” pots. Nothing a drill or small file could not fix. The holes for the pots are not set to the factory spacing. This normally isn’t an issue, except I was replacing with a 4 way switch set from Emerson that uses higher gauge wire to connect the pots. I opted to not use the plate because I would have to redo the pre-wired set. Sort of defeats the purpose of buying a pre-wired set. The switch plates finish was fine and construction looked to be decent quality. Overall, this set would be good to use in a new build where budget is limited yet a little style is desired. Installation will take a fair bit of knowledge and ability to put together, but would look nice at a distance. For a high quality build or upgrade I would recommend checking out El Dorado brand engraved parts. Though these are pricey. Everything has it’s place, these for a custom build project would be less desirable. My experience comes from 25 years of playing and working on my own guitars. Value for the money on these isn’t bad if all you are doing is trying to build a playable tele. I asked to replace the bridge because of poor finish and received a second bridge in a timely manner, but to my disappointment it too had a poor finish with chipping. Hope this helps.

Looks very sexy. Build, Fit & finish is on par for the price.
Looks good. :)The finish is well done and even. :)It's extremely light weight. :(Fells like aluminum not steele. :)Looks good. :)A tiny bit longer than the Squire Affinity bridge. :/Roller string saddles are great:))I may trim the aluminum pick guard. :(( Or not. :)) Gold bigsby style trem is on order. I'll post pix when that arrives ;)))

Incorrect pickup angle for tele, do not buy
The media could not be loaded. Well, it is beautiful for sure, 5 stars for appearance design but the quality of the back plate is rough.However, after I took half hour to sand it and polish it, I found it is totally unusable.Screw doesn't match, that's not a big deal.BUT the worst part is the pickup angle is completely wrong no matter you owned a MIM, Squier, or even American Professional.This will significantly change the sound since closer to the bridge, more harmonic content or simply brighter.If you buy this and install on your tele, it will make it sound darker becuase the treble part is farther than bridge compared to stock one.So do not buy, this is a completely false product. But the control plate repaired my chair LOL.

Only half
Did not get the right switch plate

Pretty Cool
The product looks very nice but not a 100% fit for existent holes. But definitely a nice look change for my custom built tele.

Really like the look and the function/fit are pretty good (didn’t quite fit the scratch plate so had to sand that out a bit). Saddles adjusted well for set up. Pretty happy :)
