Threaded saddles for Squier

Would these Fender brand saddles fit the bridge on my 2010 Squier VM Jazz?

I don't see any reason why they wouldn't. although the pic looks like they're in the wrong order. I would think that the two on the right should be on the left and vice versa

You are right, but I would think I don't have to arrange them like that.

yes you can move them around. it was probably just the guy who set up the picture.

Assuming the VM standard bridge is the same as a Squier Affinity's, yes it will fit just fine. I got it to fit in almost perfectly in an Affinity Jazz, only problem is that the screws that came with the new bridge were a bit too long.

Do you mean the screws that came with the new saddles? I'm not looking for a whole new bridge, just new saddles. If that's true, would the screws that came with the stock VM bridge fit the new saddles? Or are the screws metric and won't fit an Amercian made saddle?

I don't know if anyone is going to be able to answer that here, but I do like the look of the threaded saddles

I've played this game a little with my 1997 Affinity P. There are 'CY', 'IC', 'CD' and 'CT' serial numbers and there doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason to the JIS verses SAE threads from one to the other.

My 1997½ Squier Affinity P on the other hand is a 'CI' version and has US or SAE threads on it but that doesn't mean any others will or will not.

Thankfully Squier never had these made in Merrie Ole England or there'd be Whitworth threads to worry about too.
