I received my order, right on time, I'm building the lap steel , still waiting on fret board from another vender. So I haven't installed the Palm bender, or nut, or bridge. But when I do, I'll be sure to let you know how it goes, Thanks (Marty)

Shipping was prompt and the product is as high-quality as advertised. Installation is easy. I must say, however, that the Telecaster-bender model I got is going to make me modify the Squire Stinger-Tele I bought specifically for the purpose: the Stinger doesn’t have the same bridge arrangement (there are six bridges, one for each string, instead of three two-string bridges like a traditional Tele), the stings don’t thread through the body but, rather, thread through holes in the beefy ‘ashtray’ that are directly below the bridge-stem hole —altogether making it difficult to string, and to avoid the B and G strings from rubbing on the top edge of their respective holes (the angle is just barely sufficient on the Stinger-Tele no matter how far or close I mount the bender). Put another way, where various installers recommend filing a notch in the traditional Tele ashtray so the B and G strings may pass unimpeded, such is either very difficult to do or impossible on the Squire Stinger-Tele. It might be possible to relieve some stainless-steel material —make the string-hole bigger—but since the bridge-stem hole is directly above the string hole, there isn’t much material there anyway. Still, it’s a tiny angle of difference… Not to worry. I bought the Squire so’s not to drill holes or file notches in my real Telecaster, so I don’t mind modifying the Squire in whatever way is required. I presented my dilemma to a band mate who’s going to find me a traditional ashtray and three double-bridge arrangement which I’ll refit onto the new Squire. After all, that’s what I bought it for: I can do any modifications I want that I would never do to my real Tele. That I want to keep original. Overall, the bender works just fine—and I love it! (I play in a country-and-western band from time to time but don’t have the wherewithal to buy or accommodate a real pedal-steel guitar). This will do until I make the necessary modifications on the Squire. I enjoy doing it and I’m in no hurry. That is, I’m happily retired with a house full of guitars and books—and a wife who’s away a substantial part of the year taking care of our granddaughter in Vancouver. I can make all the racket I want. My rating: five thumbs-up (which is often how my playing sounds). The Certano palm-bender is a very cool thing, works great and looks really nice on my cherry-red Squire Tele. Thank you very much! Scotty on Denman Island, British Columbia

I ordered the roller nut and bridge and the bender. I’m very happy with my purchase. I’m fairly new to the lap steel. I have a Recording King and I decided to build a new lap steel. I saw the bender on YouTube and whet to the site I liked the roller nut and bridge, so I ordered all 3 items. I live in the states and was surprised how fast I received my order. The quality of the craftsmanship is wonderful. I sat and looked at these parts for a couple days and decided to upgrade my Recording King with the bender and bridge. Very easy to install and setup. So glade I decided not to wait for the new build to use the bender. However there is one big problem with the Certano hardware, I will need to order another roller bridge and bender soon for the new build. Thank you David Certano.
