Hi pals!
I'm freshly sporting a new desert sand player duo sonic. I'd love to replace the bridge with a top loader in the style of vintage duo sonics (so something like a Toronado bridge) or a short telecaster bridge. However, these player models come with a bridge that attaches to the body with three screws and all the replacements I've found have four screws. Ugh!
Are there replacement top loader bridges that will "drop in" with three screws and not require dowling and re-drilling? If you know of such a thing, I'm eager for your direction! Thanks!

Re: player duo sonic bridge replacement
The original bridge is an American Standard Hardtail Stratocaster bridge. So I’m looking for a drop in top-loader replacement - precisely the American Standard Short Telecaster bridge (with three saddles and top loading string holes). I can find that tele bridge (e.g. through Callaham) with six saddles or with three saddles as string-through-body or with bigsby cutouts, but not as a top-loader! The one option I need, I can’t find. Oof!
Where can I find this! Who might custom make such a thing if I were to ask?
Thanks!
