Direct replacement bridge.

Sign in to disble this ad
Hi, I apologise if this was already posted.
Which bridge can directly replace stock jazz bass bridge. I mean without drilling new holes and other types of modifications.
I believe Gotoh 201 can, but I am not sure. What about others like Badass II and III, Schaller roller bridge and so on?
Thanks

Gotoh 201 and Badass II are direct replacements for all 5 screw Fender Jazz/Precision bridges. So no drilling...

The Badass III is a direct replacement for 3 screw/string through Fender Jazz(/Precision?) bridges...

The Schaller Roller is also a 3 screw bridge, so redrilling a std 5-hole bridge is necessary.

It's a great bridge, however.

I use wymoreguitars.com, no affiliation either, lowest price I could find on Hipshot bridges and cheap prices in general, no shipping over 50, and no I do not work for or own that store, John Wymore is a cool guy to deal with
