Does the Badass III still fit post '08 MIA Fenders?

Sign in to disble this ad
Just got my new '08 Jazz. Overall all I'm quite impressed, but the bridge is just rubbish! I can't even turn a couple of the set-screws, in fact I snapped the included allen-key trying to lower the e-string! I've used a Badass III before and it's super good, but I just want to know if it still fits these newer MIA's.

Thanks!

It should fit. The BA3 says it is a direct feplacement for fenders. I know they "updated" the bridge, but I think the screw holes are the same as older models.

Maybe...

Leo Quan BadAss Bass Bridge III - 4 String

"This bridge is designed as a replacement for the newer FenderŪ American basses with 3 mounting holes.

- String Through Body

- Pre slotted saddles

All the great sonic characteristics of the Badass II"
