51 Precision and Telecaster Bridge covers

[backwater]

Hi Folks,
Fairly simple question. What is the difference (if any) between the bridge cover for a 51 precision and the bridge cover for a 70s Telecaster bass? I'm looking at the tapered one rather than the curved one (like the one here : [url="http://www.allparts.uk.com/bridge-cover-tele-bass-p-3082.html?p=product"]Allparts[/url]) to fit my squier telecaster bass.

Thanks

Andy

There's no difference. They're identical.
The Fender 51 Precision version should fit your Squier [b]IF[/b] Fender made them identical to the original 70's Telecaster bass...which I would guess they did?
