that's always been my understanding.
My '72 Tele Deluxe has some badass Gotoh tuners on it...a Pearly Gates in the bridge and a Fralin P-90 in the neck.
Kept all the originals in case I ever HAVE to sell it.
The '69 Coranado II has an aftermarket bridge that someone else put on; I'm looking for an original to restore it.
