It's the original SSD bridge. At that time, the USA bridges were exactly the same. Because the previous (and current) USA Bridges were Spector Branded and trademarked, Stuart had to design a new bridge (and he designed it a slightly different and smaller size... 4x1.75 instead of 4x2).

Made of solid brass without an electroplate coating. These are really nice bridges. They won't show wear like the newer brass-zinc allow models do.

Ironic - the reason I posed this question is because mine's kind of discolored. Not bad for 18 years of playing, though!
What are the options for restoring the color/finish? Brasso?

What rack gear did you order in? I'm in the market for a rack compressor but don't really know where to start.

Rack ears for my amp
X2 XDR95 wireess
Sabine tuner (picking up today)
Juice Goose power conditioner


no compressor for me, at some point I'll maybe get one, but the way I have my settings its pretty even already. I want the MXR compressor but its a stomp box :( Might get it and just velcro it to something :hiding:

I've seen this used to rack mount pedals and things...

Thanks for sharing! My setup's a bit different, but I'll probably try out settings similar to these once my legends back from the shop. Been gone less then a week... And I'm already going into withdrawal. Lol

man, I've seen one or two setups that were similar to the shelf Chrisloe posted, but it was a half shelf. Most people were racking them on the backside of their rack, and it only went halfway through the rack. I'm betting everything in your rack except the amp doesn't go to the back. If you could find one of those half shelves, you can backmount it, then velcro whatever pedals you wanted in there....assuming of course they were "always on" like a compressor would be.
