What a shame this is so chewed up. Look at that interesting installation of a Badass bridge:

Is that really just a MG that someone put in a smoker?

We should keep a copy of that bridge install, it is creative if nothing else.

Almost looks like the fretboard is coming off the neck. In any respect, looks like someone didn't take very good care of it before this guy got it. If you saw the neck getting scarred up leaning it against amps, why would you continue??
