Which tune-o-matic to go with floating tremolo?

Post by ohm-men » Sun Dec 30, 2007 4:03 am

I know this has probably been asked before, but it seams thare are quiet a few tune-o-matics available.
So, I got this odd Tele that has a floating alike tremolo, although no trem arm. I'm gonna leave the trem as it is. But the neck of this oddball is very Gibson-ish, so flat radius 24.75" scale.
I'm not gonna spent big bucks on this guitar. Just wanna make it playable. Thinking of using a tune-o-matic from "Boston" (widely available guitarparts at this side of the pond and not overexpensive)
So, would a normal tune o matic work or do I need something else?
