Gretsch Electromatic Junior Jet Bridge

Sign in to disble this ad
Does anybody out there know of a decent replacement for the bridge on a Gretsch Electromatic Junior Jet bass guitar? (The Les Paul looking short-scale one with the mini humbucker.) I've wanted to put something like a Hipshot in there, but I'm not sure if it will fit. Thanks!

What kind of problem are you having? Mine works great, and the bass sounds fantastic with the stock bridge.

You can always measure the space between screws and see if the Hipshot matches...measurements aren't hard to come by.

Not sure why you'd want to replace it. It's a nice Fender style bridge and works fine. I've owned several basses with similar bridges and with upgraded bridges and I don't think it's worth the cost or effort to replace it. YMMV.
