aj5string Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Hi... just bought a MIM 5 string Jazz, and was looking at putting a bad ass on it. I read the sticky about badass', but have one more question. The bridge on my bass has a 3 screw at the back, 2 at the front arrangement, whereas the badass 5 seems to have a 6 at the back arrangement. Has the layout changed recently, and can i fit a badass to mine without drilling extra holes? Cheers! Alex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aj5string Posted July 12, 2007 Author Share Posted July 12, 2007 Anyone? Or is a different bridge i.e. schaller the only option? ALex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassbloke Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 The hole placement on the Badass V is very different to the bridge layout on a MIM jazz V. I had to get mine fitted professionally. The holes do line up properly with a US Deluxe jazz, but you cannot string through body. I don;t think a Schaller is a straight fit eiher.
