I was a little bit pessimistic about installing this on my Strat. I mean, I AM a purist, after all! But I had an extra Strat laying around that needed some guts, so I bought it. The installation instructions were very well detailed for multiple installation scenarios (no controls, separate volume knob, etc). Then when I got the package in the mail, I sat down, read through the well-written instructions and installed it within an hour. Then when I realized that they had not sent the stereo jack with the original package, I emailed LR Baggs customer support and they shipped the part overnite with No questions whatsoever! Customer service does not get any better than that! Now, I have a SUPER sounding Strat that I can toggle back and forth (or mix) between Acoustic sounds and typical Strat sounds! The addition is perfect for a Strat! My others sit on the shelf now!!

I bought this bridge because I needed to switch in live performances between electric and acoustic sound, and I'm very glad I did. I also bought the preamp wich gives me the stereo output and other advantages, It really sounds like an acoustic guitar. Excellent for live performances.
