Hey Tom, anything I should consider if I change Floyds on my drop top 7-to a brand new one (different color)?
- cant seem to remember if I asked this before, anyway if you haven't seen the new satin chrome and other finishes, some look pretty nice.

The biggest pain beyond setting intonation is getting the radius set. You can start just transferring the shims from the old one, but that won't necessarily be right. They have always had inconsistent saddle heights so each bridge hasto be iindividually matched to the neck.
