Do bridge covers do anything for the guitar other than make them look cool?

I don't know about Strat bridge covers, but I think Tele bridge covers sometimes offer some extra shielding from noise.........

Plastic, no; metal, yes. The metal helps shield the pickup from external noise sources and in some cases, depending on what kind of metal(s), alters the magnetic field.

Hello Dreadkid,

I never saw or knew a person who
used one, but I have seen a few
lying in cases.

Cheers.
