I bought this bridge to replace the 7 year old tarnished, dirt and worn down gold plated ToM style on my Dean ML, as there was a buzzing sound coming from the higher strings when unplugged, and a shrill tremolo pedal esque fade in and out when plugged in. None of my other ToM guitars had this, so I figured buying a nice bridge would help. Well, it most certainly helped. The stability of the saddles was very good, and they did not move without use of a screwdriver. The shrillness and buzzing of the high strings was gone with it, and the bass and body of the sound significantly increased. Overall, fantastic fix both for stability and tone.
