No sound improvement, and there isn't anything wrong with the stock B20 bridge.
I think they're pretty nice having one height adjustment screw rather than two per saddle, and easily adjustable.

Thanks

I will pass on the bridge then. I bought the Bruce Springsteen strap from csernistraps.com instead.Christmas money set aside for the bass.
