I know that this is installed on the Nashville Power Tele.

Does anyone know if it comes stock on any other Tele model? And is there any real advantage to this bridge?

Back about 10 or 12 years ago was when I first heard of this bridge. It was an option on the American Deluxe Telecaster. I had just bought a new American Deluxe Tele not even a year before or I would have snapped one up. The idea is to try to get an acoustic kind of tone from the guitar. It sort of works but not really. That's not to say it isn't a useful sound, it's just not a very good acoustic simulation, IMO. I've actually never come across any sort of acoustic simulation that worked all that well. They all sort of do it but not quite. I'd still like to have one though. Anything that adds versatility is good in my books.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

The American Deluxe sported active electronics for the piezos.
