Hey guys. I have a 2005 Sterling H with the current bridge and I've always wanted to compare it to one of the earlier Sterlings with the Felt Mute bridge. I am thinking that it will have a bit more sustain since there's more mass/bridge area connecting to the body (I also think the Felt Mute bridge just looks awesome - to me, that's part of the Music Man "look" - like a vintage Stingray).
For those of you who have tried both bridges, what are you thoughts on them as far as tone is concerned? Is there a big difference? Also, what about stringing and string alignment? I believe the older bridges have the string angled slightly or no? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
