Replacement saddles for Badass II bridge???

Sign in to disble this ad
Two of my set screws were rusted (E and D).. and when trying to remove them, I stripped out the saddles and basically messed them all up....

Anyone know where to find some replacement saddles??

This raises another question. Why is badass so highly priced if the saddles get stripped. I don't know how hard did you try to remove the screws but regardles of that if I paid $100+ for a bridge I would expect peace of mind. Both with saddles and the screws. Of course provided that I cleaned it regularly.

I don't know.

The set screws got all stripped out by trying to remove them in order TO clean it.

Here.

By the way, a simple Google search would have gotten you there. It's the second result. No snark intended.
