Replacement wraparound bridges for SG

Post by kmn1000 » Wed Mar 21, 2012 2:09 pm

I'm going to buy an SG Special with three p90s similar to the one here:

But I want to replace the bridge with one that intonates better. I'm debating between two types.

The Wilkinson/Gotoh Adjustable Bridge/Tailpiece:

or the Pigtail Wrap-Around Intonatable Tailpiece (about halfway down the page):

Does anyone have any experience or advice for either of these, or maybe someone has tried both and likes one over the other? Thanks for the help.

why don't you try the guitar stock before you replace. Some of these guitars intonate really well
