'63/64 Hagstrom Coronado IV and '65 Guild Jetstar:
I double-checked and both bridges are identical with same saddles / spacing
btw does anyone know what connection existed between Guild and Hagstrom in the early-mid 60s? A few models shared similar designs (ie Hagstrom Viking / Guild starfire) with similar if not identical hardware.
Hagstrom was the manufacturer of several parts used by Guild. I like mgod's answer as to how the relationship started ;-)

I think it was that Mark Dronge was romantically linked with a Hagstrom daughter. And, yes - it's the same stuff for a while.
It is well established that Hagstrom was the manufacturer of several parts used by Guild. I like mgod's answer as to how the relationship started
