    Help identifying vintage bass bridge

    Yes, thanks for the pics. I actually still have a red 2nd run H8 that I bought new in 1969 to refer to. If I can’t find a bridge, or if they are all ridiculously priced, I might just make a few out of stainless. I’d like to find another set of those pickups though.

    Help identifying vintage bass bridge

    Well, it is ok if I use it as a 4 string, but to put the bass back to an 8 string I would have to drill 4 more holes in it and I’m guessing the added strings would need their own saddles, so I need to add a bar with 8 separate saddles to replace what’s on there now? I think if I could find the...

    Well, found a similar bridge on the Bay and it's described as a "Zim-Gar" Teisco. so maybe that's what this is. Never heard of "Zim-Gar" before???

    Help identifying vintage bass bridge

    Thanks, no, I don't need it, but the shop I bought it from told me it was the original bridge, which I know isn't true. The bass still has the wrong bridge on it, it's some kind of Guild bridge. I originally bought it for the pickups, but now I'm starting to like it and I'm thinking it might be...

    Fender '70-'73 P and '72 J Bass Bridge

    Thanks, I prefer to find just the screw and spring. I have seen a few "vintage" bridges for big bucks, and some of them look like the longer G screw and/or spring isn't original or correct (I enlarged one to scale and measured the long screw at 2"). I already have what looks to be a...

    Fender '70-'73 P and '72 J Bass Bridge

    Does anyone know where I can find an original looking bridge for a '73 P bass? They had one longer screw for the G string (I think 2" and other 3 were 1 1/2"?). I've seen all kinds of RI and reproduction bridges from all the usual sources, but can't find this one. Were these nickel or chrome in...

    Need help identifying 2000 American P bass

    Wow, thanks for the post! Great information for anyone trying to decipher what they have. Looks like color 01 was (white)blonde ash and 21 was natural ash, then there's a 22 ash, was that the orange?

    Need help identifying 2000 American P bass

    Thanks BN, I looked for it for awhile and found it locally at a GC, so I was able to touch it before I bought it and did a nice trade deal, exactly the combo I wanted, just would like the '70's style logo with Precision Bass in big letters
