Replacement Saddle(s) for a Badass II Bridge???

Sign in to disble this ad
I tried searching on this but my Boolean must be a bit rusty

I got a used BAII the other day at the local guitar/junk shop to put on an old MIJ Squier Jazz I like messing with. After installing it, I noticed that whoever had filed the saddles originally didn't do a real good job. The strings were far from equidistant in their spacing, but the grooves are close enough to where they should be on two of the saddles, I don't think I could file a second slot in the correct position successfully.

Since it seems a shame to ditch the whole bridge because the saddles are messed up, I'm wondering where I can buy replacement saddles?

Any and all direction would be much appreciated!

Thanks.

I have some spare saddles I could send you for free if you want. My badass 3 came with both slotted and unslotted and I have no need for the unslotted.

You'd have to pay for shipping (from England) but it could work out cheaper.

PM me if you want
