He should've used one of those new Badass IIIs. That's a good bridge for string throughs. I don't know if they make them for 5 strings though.

I would have at least tinted the cut on the tailpiece black after cuttung. And made the holes in-line. I'd be interested in hearing the tone and sustain.

I can't believe that S/5 is going that high with the bridge like that. I'm not planning on selling Da Blue Beast, but it makes me wonder what I'd get for it since it is in very nice condition and not modded at all.
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)
