Badass III string-thru installation?

Sign in to disble this ad
Is it possible to install a string-thru Badass III like this...



In a traditional 5-hole Fender bridge rout?

Naturally extra holes would need to be drilled.
But would any existing holes need to be plugged, I'm wondering?

Anyone done this? The spacing would be all off I'm thinking.
Is it worth the conversion?

I'd ideally like something string-through-body. Even if not Badass.
Thanks!

I would insert the middle screw, since that will line up, then go from there.

Since this bridge has notched saddles you could just move the string wherever you wanted to help the spacing.
