These are great bridges - but having fitted one on a J, unfortunately that's not right. They have a 3-screw fitting, however to intonate properly these are about 7mm back from the standard ones & do [b]not[/b] line up with them. You will need to drill new holes.

However - these bridges are intended to be retrofitted to Ps & Js so to that end, under the saddles there are 2 additional screwholes which line up with holes 2 & 4 from your bent tin bridge - screw it on using these & marking the new holes you have to drill is a doddle. :)

Many thanks Jon. That really is invaluable advice. I may take a few picks for some help if needed. I am expecting a Jap P body any day now and this bridge is the first piece of the jigsaw. It's my first bass project so I am very excited and posting a lot of anal questions. It does look like a great bridge though.
