skin_vert Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Hi there guys. I'm after some advice. I am in need of 4 x matching Fender Jazz bridge saddles, complete with the 4 screws and 4 Springs for a MiA '75 Re-issue. I've put an ad in the wanted section of this forum but appear to be talking to myself in that section of the forum. Not sure if there's a particular website that might sell these? Or that hopefully someone who has some spare might notice my need for them in this section of the forum. I don't need the bridge plate as such. Just the saddles and components of which Fender don't sell separately. And i've been quoted £42 for a brand new Fender bridge complete with components. So just putting the feelers out to see if anybody here has a set that they don't need and are willing to sell. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

ikay Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 You can get bridge saddles+screws+spring sets which should do the trick from Allparts here: [url="http://www.allparts.uk.com/online-shop/guitar-bass-parts/bridges-parts-tailpieces/bridge-parts/bass-saddles-c-277_1_630_25_31.html"]http://www.allparts.uk.com/online-shop/gui..._630_25_31.html[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't say the particular brand they are though unfortunately. If possible, I would like to get the 'real deal' MiA Fender parts, as i've saved for an age to get the bass in question. And would like to fit the parts that were specifically intended for it. Tad silly i know , but there we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pics below, they are from a US '62 RI, the newer reissues are wholly innacurate, and it needed threaded saddles, so i swapped 'em. If you want these PM me. [attachment=83644:P6280003.JPG] [attachment=83645:P6280002.JPG] [attachment=83643:P6280004.JPG] They are brand new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
