Rayman Posted August 12 Author Share Posted August 12 There we go… Hipshot bridge fitted, and I’m a lot happier with the string spacing. The strings now go directly over the pole pieces, and the string width over the neck is also right for me. Job done 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 I might wrong, but it looks like Fender have used the same sized pickups for neck and bridge on these, which was always going to be a compromise. That said, it's vastly improved with that new bridge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds absolutely exactly the same, but I’m happy non the less. The Hipshot bridge is superior in terms of quality and the adjustment options are infinitely better. I think the bass is worth the upgrade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
