I have a 2004 with three piece wings as my number one. These basses sound as heavy as they feel, love it! I hope someone grabs this.

.66" at bridge

The Spector Bridge
How To Adjust It:
The Spector Locking Bridge is found on all basses with the exception of the
Performance Series. The design consideration is that while this bridge is
sophisticated, it is actually very simple and EASY to adjust. Another profound
benefit of the Spector Locking Bridge is that it LOCKS. You cannot adjust it, until
you unlock it. Once adjusted, lock it and it will STAY where you put it. To adjust,
leave the strings on the bass and tuned to normal pitch. Loosen the set screw on
side of bridge with Allen wrench. Using same Allen wrench as above, adjust
height of each string saddle as needed to suit your playing style. Adjust the
intonation of each bridge saddle by moving the saddle away from the neck (if the
higher register notes are playing sharp) or toward neck (if the higher notes are
playing flat) as needed. For optimum performance, each of the saddles should be
tilted back toward the ball end of the string at the same angle as the headstock
tilt (but opposite in direction). Tighten set screw on side of bridge and now the
saddles will stay in place even when strings are changed. This solid contact also
adds to the overall sustain and tone of the Spector Bass.
Spector String Spacing Specifications
Inquiring minds want to know, so in response to many requests:
Scale Length Nut Width At 12th Fret At Bridge Fingerboard Radius

5 String 35” 1.84” 2.415” .66” 16
