Well, I currently have a Glendale magnetic stainless steel bridge that is "vintage thin". But I have also tried the Joe Barden brideg that is not stainless steel and is rather thick. But in both cases the whole bridge plate reacts a bit like a microphone that is prone to feedback.
The best remedy I can think of is to add two screws in the front two corners of the bridge plate in order to reduce vibration. I'd also replace height adjustment screws with silicon tubing.
IMO, the tele bridge assembly is not the best suited for high gain playing, but I've had acceptable results with the mod mentioned above. hth -TeA
