The 2Tek Bridge: The performance enhancements of the 2TEK® Bridge comes from individual string isolation coupled with maximum interaction between it and the natural resonance of the instrument body and neck materials. Each string saddle sits on its own individual tonal finger, which separates each string from the rest. The result is improved individual note articulation, especially in complex chords and playing techniques. This isolation also allows each string to vibrate for a greater length of time producing superior sustain.

GLWS.
I'm happy to swap all the plastic back to the white for the buyer, if they so wish.
I'm in Edinburgh this weekend!
