Precision-Machined Brass High Mass Bass Bridge For Fender Jazz Or Precision Bass - Perfect Fit - Vintage Mount

I chose this option after considering all of the alternatives to the factory-bent piece of alloy. It's un- As far as I know, it wasn't branded, but it was made of solid brass. Everyone has an opinion on the advantages and disadvantages of wood vs. mass. I've been playing for nearly 50 years and would appreciate the mass on a good piece of wood. Only the G string intonation and a slight height adjustment were needed because the holes lined up perfectly (original screws were used). When the bass was turned off, there was only a slight difference in sustain and vibration. I noticed a significant difference when I plugged it into the preamp. For the price, the fit and finish were excellent, and one of the reasons I chose this model was that it is about 1/2 inch shorter than the Fender and Hipshot models, which, in my opinion, look ridiculous. I believe it has more sustain and bite because the mounting holes are closer to the chunk of brass.

It was very simple to set up. This bridge is bigger and heavier than the one I built before. My Fender Nylon Tape Wound Light strings have a lovely sustain. The sound quality of the strings has improved significantly. My 4-string Fender Squire Affinity Bass is sounding better than it has in a long time! The overall sound of my bass has improved noticeably, which has surprised me. br>br>The small Allen Wrench that came with the kit was far too big. I already had a set and was able to locate the correct size, after which I easily adjusted the bridge. br>br>Overall, I am extremely pleased with my purchase!.

I did it myself because it was an easy install, which was my main concern. Word of advice: If you want to reuse your strings, gently pull them through the old bridge to avoid scraping them. Now comes the magical part. This bridge enriched the tone to the bass body or the bass to the bridge, whichever way you look at it, it connected the entire tonal thing enough to notice, very inspiring, and that's half the battle if you're an artist. NEW THINGS THAT YOU ENJOY LEARNING NEW THINGS YOU ENJOY Never let anyone tell you what's what, because you'll know what's what, just like this bridge.

This is a good thing. When compared to the original stock bridge, it appears to be of good quality, solid, and adds a lot of sustain. In addition, each string has the ability to move to the side in three predetermined directions. slots that have been defined Adjusting string spacing and, as I discovered, intonation, is a breeze. However, there are a few factors to consider: Adjusting string height and length necessitates the use of two different Allen wrench sizes. The only thing included was a string height wrench. Furthermore, the supplied screws were too thin. The original Fender bridge screws had to be used again. It's not a problem at all - The new bridge was designed to fit perfectly over the existing holes. I'm hoping that this will be my new Fender Jazz bass's 'bridge to life'!.

It's rock solid, has a lot of mass, and it's simple to put together and adjust. It also improved the sound and feel of my Squire Jaguar Bass right away. I really like this guitar, but it appears that all Squire basses and the majority of Fender basses have stamped steel bridges. It functions, but it isn't of the same caliber as the rest of the instrument. br>I used the original screws because the ones that came with the kit were smaller. There were no issues with the strings fitting perfectly through the block. For less than $40, it looks, feels, and sounds amazing.

This is on a 1991 MIM P Bass that I installed. I re-measured to ensure a perfect fit. Because the threads on the screws were a little different, I used the original bridge screws. To get a proper connection, the balls of the strings should all be parallel like this (=). The string height adjustment wrench is perfect, but the hex key that came with it does not adjust the intonation, so I'm on the lookout for the correct key.

If I had the chance, I'd give it a 6! It would be an understatement to say I'm pleased with this bridge. It replaces and corrects the flaws of a low-cost, light-weight "high-performance" tire. bridge of "mass" The previous bridge was difficult to adjust, and the strings buzzed above the 12th fret. It was also made of an unidentified metal, which corroded the screws. My MIM Jaguar Bass is perfect with the new brass bridge - The holes are exactly where they should be. (In order to install the low-cost bridge, I had to drill four holes. ) It's simple to set up, and the buzzing is no longer an issue. I don't anticipate any corrosion because the bridge is made of brass. It also appears to be attractive. This book comes highly recommended.

This bridge has a flawless design and finish. . . first class! And I'm a retired engineer with more than 50 years of metal finishing experience. If you don't account for the proper string distance when mounting, your intonation will suffer. It's possible that the bridge you're replacing has a different mounting system. In most cases, the correct distance is calculated by doubling the distance between the tuning nut and the 12th fret. A typical Jazz Bass measures 34 inches long on average. It's possible that yours isn't the same. Once it's installed and adjusted, you'll notice how useful it is for your bass.
