Yes. I have not yet installed the stang bridge because I want to get some dowel rods and hammer a bit into the bridge hole, then drill out the exact size for the posts so it doesn't rock back and forth. I presently have it just wrapped with electrical tape but I wanna try something a bit firmer this time.

Thanks for sending those, dawg.

No, I have to leave the cups, that's where the grounding happens. I think. I was just going to jam a dowel down into the cup then drill out exactly sized holes for the bridge posts to go in.
