Worked perfectly and looks nice
Went together nicely although the control plate was a little larger than the pickguard allowed so I had to file the pickguard.

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!

Fantastic Product
Received my parts today and man was I excited. The bridge and control plate look fantastic and are heavy made. Installation took a bit of time. Control panel plate was just a bit larger then the old one and had to drill a new mounting hole along with shave a bit off the pick guard. (Wasn't to bad) Now for the bridge/saddle install. The old ash try style bridge has 4 mounting screws this bridge/saddle only has 3 and don't match up with the old holes. So your going to have to drill new holes to mount this. My tele did not have through the body holes for the strings but will soon have that. (Also have to be drilled) All in all was a nice install and it looks great and very pleased. Take your time and measure everything and get it straight. I do believe that getting the strings through the body will make intonation easier so that will be the next step. It plays very well as is.

DOES NOT FIT MIM Telecaster
These plates are great quality and look cool but they do not fit my MIM standard Tele which was a let down. The volume and tone knob pot poles do not fit in the allotted holes. The screw holes at either end do not fit either. I will either need to bore the holes to widen them or use then on a different guitar.

Probably won’t fit right
Was excited about finding this for a special designed guitar. It arrived and I realized it wasn’t a 4 screw hole mount, so make sure you check to see what yours is. Next, it shows to hve holes to install strings through the back of the bridge and through the body. It does not have holes for bridge strung strings. It didn’t line up at all with the routing for the bridge pickup and the holes for mounting weren’t anywhere close to the original mounting holes. The control plate that hold the volume and tone knobs didn’t line up with existing holes either. It didn’t fit in the curve of the pickguard to topIt off. This is a cheap unit and you get what you pay for. If you’re building from scratch and drill holes for mounting and string the guitar through the body, this would work but as far as fitting on a standard guitar’s mounting setup, you’d better pass. I’m an experienced musician and wanted something unique for my guitar but this was pretty much a flop. I’d recommend going with a different product, but it might make you happy. Different people like different things but don’t plan on it lining up with existing holes to mount.

For Modern Telecaster
I originally bought these for my personal Telecaster, but I discovered it is a vintage spec and these are designed specifically for modern spec. A customer requested a Telecaster and I had the hardware ready to go and this is the result. I absolutely love the engraving on it, it is very pretty. The material is solid and feels good under your hands. These are sweet!

Needs fitting
The switch late is bigger than the or - you will need to do some fitting - the hardware is very nice

its a nice bridge
so the brass saddles are great, design, great, the one thing that was a bit disappointing was the quality of the chrome plating, it was a bit rough around the edges. woulda been really nice if not for that

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.
