I just bought a superb gold Bernie Marsden and am very pleased with it. All except for the 'standard' PRS compromise intonation bridge. With the strings fitted at the factory (10s feel like) the intonation on the strings is not as good as I'm used to. Is there a good bridge replacement alternative? Many thanks!

MannMade 2300 FTW! You'll get this recommendation from many more here. I put one on my Bernie, and two core models. Love it!

You need to replace the stud wells too. John Mann will send the US studs, and tools to remove the old ones. It takes more time to replace the strings than to replace the studs.

Or if you're on a budget, the metric (for imported guitars) TonePros:

Prior to the MannMade, I was big on the TonePros adjustable, but some people weren't. Matter of taste I suppose. But now, I would go for the MannMade 8 days a week! Disclaimer, I haven't actually used one, but you won't find many people that don't like John's stuff. He'll be my go to if I need a bridge replacement.

Should be fine. All three of mine are pre slotted. I run 9's or 10's with no problems. Looks like he's got some additional color choices now too.

Yup, Mann Made is a very good choice.
