No. 8 Wire 148 Posted November 9, 2020 I'm no expert, but isnt that a non stienberger bridge and head piece? Also the fingerboard looks strange, shouldn't it be resin not rosewood? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I won't claim "expert" status, but having owned a few original Steinbergers, I can say with pretty definite certainty that Steinberger never used a headstock retainer like that. The whole thing looks like some sort of cheapish XM2 copy. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Max Normal 54 Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) This is definitely a "Chineberger". I have this headpiece and bridge in my parts drawer. They are Chinese copies, skillfully crafted out of cheddar. edit: Not sure Ned integrated sightly wonky pickups in his designs either.....
