Do any of you Tele players use the bridge PU cover (ash tray), or know of any who do? The reason for asking is that I was going through a list of accessories and came up with the cover as being available for purchase. To be honest with you, I was surprised to see it. Perhaps people buy it if they are restoring old 50s Teles. Anyone use it?

Cheers

I quite liked the pickup covers I installed on my Jazz Bass when I had it, but as much as I use palm muting on guitar, I can't even fathom trying to play a Tele with the bridge cover on. They do look cool though.

I agree, they do look cool, but like you, I too palm mute. I guess for all the smokers back then, it was a nice feature having a guitar with its very own pull off ash tray. :D
