Hi,I have a Telecaster style bridge that is too wide for me.It has three Gotoh compensated brass saddles.
How can I narrow the string spacing?
many thanks

Can you use the threaded type saddles instead of smooth steel/brass?

The easiest thing is to replace the bridge - but you can get narrower saddles or threaded style as Chris suggested. Good luck - let us know what you decide!
Measure twice, cut once...

Many thanks Mark.
I can’t find narrower saddles,I’ve looked at all the dealers I know.
Would you be able to recommend anyone.
Thanks for your very helpful guitar building tips.
