Yeah, is the bridge exclusive to the LE?

Anyone got a good pic of it?

The word is that it will become the new standard bridge, probably when the stock of old ones runs out. But who knows for sure?

Here's the best picture I've seen so far...

I hope it does become standard. Clever way to incorporate new features without changing the overall look of the bridge.

Nope. Dual rods.

has anyone figured out if regular 4003 in classic colours (I mean firego and mapleglo) with the new bridge have been shipped? I'm searching for a mapleglo 4003 with bridge v.2, preferably here in Europe, but can't find it...

Olivia’s had some awhile back. I was very interested in one but it was just over my weight limit.
