Let me start of by saying, I HATED my Squier telecaster. It had the WORST setup/action/intonation I've ever seen in a guitar. Come to think of it, intonation and action was always a problem with any Fender Telecaster I played. This is coming from a guy who owns 3 Ibanez Prestige guitars.Ibanez Prestige guitars have the strings almost flush with the body, the action is so low, and the bridges are completely flat and comfortable.With the Telecaster bridges, for some reason they have the worst engineered bridge of all time, as far as setting low action. And having the action set so high is so uncomfortable to play on the neck. Not only that, but adjusting the truss rod right is damn near impossible with the action being so far away from the body.For a few months I had the action set incredibly low on my Tele. With the screws poking out as you see in the picture. Those screws sticking out made palm muting the biggest pain. Good luck playing any metal song. My hand would just be torn flesh down to the bone if I continued playing that way.So I bought these Monsterbolt screws as a solution and thank GOD. They were a perfect fit!! As you can see in the picture, I like my action so low that the saddle screw is slouching at an angle! And the screws are exactly 6mm as described!!My only concern is that, I hope gunk doesn't build up too much in those screw holes. I could see that becoming an issue if I ever want to remove these saddle screws.Needless to say, this is now one of my favorite guitars to play, even out of my other Ibanez Prestiges. If I had more Telecaster, I'd swap all their saddle screws for these MonsterBolt ones, no questions asked!!
