Dwight Listmayer	Re: tele compensated bridge Hi, I would think that the only issue is how many mounting screws the bridge has, to go into the Tele body. Your MIM Nashville is like a vintage-style and takes 4 screws. The compensated bridge is a direct replacement. Currently I am using both, and there was no problem with the string spacing. The compensated bridge sounds wonderful too, having nice tone. I also have the flat American -style with only 3 mounting screws. That surprises me - only 3! I haven't looked into the Wilkinson, but you know you'll be getting a good one. All the best. Strat man Dwight
