I will probably turn right around and sell it but who knows.

What does it sound like? - are they Gretch style pickups?

I have a Chinese Gibson style guitar with a really horrible bridge. I'd like to swap it for a tunamatic style but the Chinese spacing and bridge pins size is wrong - does anyone know a source of bridges that might fit mine. Ideally a 'drill no holes' swap would be great.
 
@rob aylestone

Tone Pros metric spacing.

Your current bridge is basically the same specs as the Epiphone stuff. The tone pros is designed to replace that. Very good quality, the Chinese hardware is junk.
 
Cheers for that - I will have a look and see what I can get. The one I have looks fine, but the saddles seem to adjust themselves!!

Came up on marketplace, caught my eye, had to buy it. Worse comes to worst, I can get back what I paid for it. 265 USD
I hope it has fret markers on the side of the neck lol.

Bet it does. I see this blue one has 'em.

It's a cheap guitar but I am a simple man. Most of my recorded tunes were done on my 250 dollar Aston.
 
I am used to playing heavier guitars. I don't know about this one but the other Tele I bought feels like a feather. This one having the
Bigsby will make up the weight lost in the semi hollow body.
 
Here is the 250 dollar Aston with FMmahoganyrush in the background. May he rest in peace.
