New H-150 bridge specs?

[PunkKitty]

I'm trying to find out the specs of one of the newer locking bridges and tailpieces that Heritage is using. I didn't find much with a search.

I looked at the Heritage website. If you zoom in on the pics of the CC H-150, you can see it has a bushing or something that screws on from the top with a slot for a screwdriver or something. I'm not sure who actually makes it, but I know it is NOT TonePros.

It looks like this one:chrome aluminum locking nashville tune-o-matic bridge for us guitars https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07SMSHSQ2/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_YK2J8PW1QP9RWPCBM489

Or it could be this one off Reverb:Tone Ninja Class-A Locking Aluminum Nashville TOM Bridge USA Made, Chrome https://reverb.com/item/45438088-tone-ninja-class-a-locking-aluminum-nashville-tom-bridge-usa-made-chrome?utm_source=android-app&utm_medium=android-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=45438088-tone-ninja-class-a-locking-aluminum-nashville-tom-bridge-usa-made-chrome

You might have to send Heritage an email. I also found this one:https://www.philadelphialuthiertools.com/bridge-and-tailpieces/nashville-bridges/pinnacle-locking-aluminum-base-titanium-saddles-tom-nashville-bridge/

I'm really just wondering if the bridge and tailpiece are aluminum.

From what I can tell, they are zink.

Okay. The Pinnacle bridges with titanium saddles have an aluminum base according to the Philadelphia Luthiers Supply web site. That's good. If the tailpiece isn't aluminum, I can buy the matching one from them.

The locking tailpiece on my 2019 Standard H-150 is aluminum, not zinc.  It's very light.  And it has Advanced Music Product's patent number on it.  The one on my 2019 H-535 is heavy zinc and also has Advanced Music Product's patent number on it.  I've tried a lightweight aluminum tailpiece on that guitar ans it did not sound good- Heritage got it right!

They both have a Pinnacle locking bridge with Advanced's logo on them.  They're similar to the bridge shown on the Core H-150, but not the latest Standard H-150 pics on Heritage's site.  The bridge on my H-150 feels really light (I had it off today).  I don't recall how heavy the bridge on my H-535 is.
