Here is what I mean by my bridge being rusty. The picture says it all.
So all the rusty saddles are removed before cleaning the bridge plate. There is hardly any rust on it though. Just a few scratches and rust stains from the saddles.
This is where the stuffs (to my mom, they are rubbish) I retrieved from the dustbin come in handy. After cleaning all the saddles, they look as if they are new. I prefer this type of saddles more than the vintage-style stamped bent ones. I find them easier to play palm muting with these saddles.
After all the installation done, I went back to check the damage done by the rust. The springs are all deformed thanks to the rusting.
So, I guess the below are the real rubbish. (not the clip! That's supposed to be a present for a friend.)
Or maybe not. The saddles are not too rusty and still usable (as long as you have the screws and the springs). If anyone wants it, do let me know. I won't mind giving them away. I hate to throw stuffs away. But I think it is better to get new ones though. Each saddle costs about $5-8.

Math today was a total screwy.
