The original Teles came with bridge assemblies that consisted of three brass saddles rather than six individually adjustable saddles. Many connoisseurs of vintage Telecasters feel that the brass saddles - while making intonation a bit more difficult - is what gave the Tele that unmistakable twang. This Fender Classic Player Baja '60s Telecaster solidbody electric guitar is equipped with a vintage-style 3-saddle bridge for classic Tele tone and string-through-body for excellent sustain.
