My MiM Tele, whilst lovely with it's BK pups, needs some more tinkering.

Can I ask for recommendations for tuner and bridge replacements.
I'd like satin black or dark grey would be lovely.

Budget is open but won't bust the bank.

    What type of bridge is currently on the guitar? The positions of its string and fastening screw holes may restrict your options for suitable replacements.

    Is your bridge position pickup suspended using compressible rubber tubing sections? If so, try replacing them with steel springs.

    Consider replacing machined from solid bridge saddles with the vintage Stratocaster stamped steel type.

    Thanks. I was having a look earlier and it does appear to be more complicated than I first imagined.  That is the way of course.
