No issues! The bridge has little slots carved in it for the strings, bass plays wonderfully. I *think* it is a floating bridge, but I've never changed the strings to find out I recall Scott saying something to me once that he was pretty sure they used a floating bridge and the location was marked on the bass.

I'll work on getting some close up shots of the bridge and a video over the weekend.

 

I agree on the ebony fingerboard. This is as smooth playing an instrument as I've ever seen or played. Those anniversary models went for something like $1200+ if I remember correctly, so this is a nice deal for someone!

 

I have had the delano on previous Birdsong's and it is a wonderful pickup.

I believe it would fit, but the wiring/routing may be different. I honestly don't know.

My understanding is that the design on the embrace was supposed to be a faux-sound hole like the one found in acoustic guitars.

 

Very cool!

Was it easy to install? No issues with the wiring or routing or anything?

I bet that is a very powerful fretless tone
