anyone know anything about these? looking to replace the stock bridge on my SX PJ and this caught my eye as an alternative to a Hipshot or Badass for that added attack sound.

I've dealt with Guitarfetish before and they're a reputable dealer. The bridges I think you're talking about look like the real deal to me, I don't think you can go wrong for $19.95. One thing I must add is, at the price they're going for, CHECK FOR BURRS! I have my suspicions with Chinese QC!

I used one for an SX P Bass, worked great, improved the sustain.

I've used that exact bridge before to great effect on several bass builds. It gets the job done and I noticed that it increased sustain on a p bass whose bridge I swapped. They really are a great dealer and have had great customer service when it came to a couple defective pickups I received. Just double check the quality of the metal and you'll probably be set.
