SOLD G&L Saddle-Lock Bridge Screw (replacement)

My used G&L L2500 didn't come with one so I was on a quest to "build (find?) a better mouse trap".

This is a solution for those of you with a missing/lost saddle-lock screw and nylon spacer for your G&L Bass. (Also if you just wanted to ditch that small spacer all together).

Its a proper size metric nylon tipped screw, takes same metric size Allen wrench as saddle height adjusters. I had to buy a minimum quantity, so Im selling off the extra.



PayPal $5 shipped CONUS, local pickup in NYC OK.

(Bass, Bridge, String, and Allen wrench not included )

 

well, tighten back up.

 

Since the side arcs, one edge is flush and the opposite is proud about a 1/32" (.5mm).

These are 10mm in length, I chose this length to be as flush as possible when tightened. This aids in easy Allen wrench adjustment. I don't like how the OEM screws were countersunk.

 

yes if your "late model" is 2006 or later, and all PM replied

from G&L website:

Complete set of (6) tension screws w/ nylon bushings. These are the little Hex screws that hold the vibrato arm in on G&L Dual Fulcrum tremolo-equipped guitars and are also used on the side of G&L Saddle Lock bridge to lock the saddles together. There are 2 different thread configurations: For US instruments 2005 and older, use part # 080215-000 (Standard), for US instruments 2006 and later and all Tribute instruments use part # 080215-100 (Metric).​

 

hmmm, interesting. I never had that happen. I always:

• tune the strings up after saddle adjustment (which keeps the saddle down)
• then, last thing to do once setup is complete, tighten the locking screw.

shouldn't be an issue (IMO, the guys at G&L won't have let that slide if that were the case.)

hi sorry late reply...
Not in the US at the start of this thread. If it were available—at a reasonable cost—none of this would've been necessary.

You'll have to look online (outside US, in "Metric-land" it should be easy.)
Most likely have to buy a pack of 20, 50 or 100 depending on vendor. (thats how this thread got started—I needed 1)
