a small amount of blue won't do this.
don't use the red grade, that takes a torch to break it's bond.

Finally! I'm now a proud owner of an NYC! Ohhh and look at the serial number "1962" what a famous year for a fender jazz bass..
Nice pickup...I find that the ash and morado are just a great combo. Very versatile with many different types of music. What type of bridge is that?
Paullee, Chef is absolutely right, and IMHO, no need to call the shop. This is a no-brainer. This is EXACTLY what Loktite Blue is for. I've also heard of folks taking the screw out and tapping it with a hammer to MILDLY flatten some of the threads to do the same thing, but I like the Blue method much better.
Do it.
IMHO.

I'm not even sure that I would use a drop. Just a tiny bit on a toothpick should be enough.
And of course there is the mojo juice loctite....just blood sweat and tears packed in on the threads with a bit of chicken wing grease

I did say tiny little drop, but yeah, that's the idea J, very small amount.
fwiw, Lok-tite green is a penetrating version that would allow you to set the saddle, and then apply. It wicks in and cures later.
In this application, there is nothing wrong with nail polish either, as suggested earlier.
I'd wonder why you had it laying around though<:>}

Thanks bro! I'm not sure what type of bridge this was.. All I know is its light(7.8lbs) for a non-chambered body and it plays like buttah!
Thanks! I will try to post a picture as soon as I can borrow my sisters camera..
Okay, a couple of y'all asked for it, so here are some bass-heavy clips of Whitey from last night's gig. Again, nothing fancy, just a Zoom Q3 set up close to me... but I like the tone MUCH better live than in my basement. Whitey --> Ampeg SVP Pro --> Stewart World 2.1 --> Bergantino NV610
Yeah, I'm still camera shy, but the bass is much prettier than I am.

Very cool. And that's a tasteful, yet dramatic-looking bass, too.
