Yes there is an envelope. The signal chain is Browne T4 fuzz > Mutron Microtron III > JHS Colourbox.

There is something "Special" headed my way from the classified section. A Sonus Special 4 string that looks to be in amazing condition. So excited!
One of the first thoughts I had when I first played my fretless 5 string was " Oh....I need to get a fretted version of this".

Deepest condolences to Joe for the loss of his father.

Well now I got worry
i was changing the strings on my Sonus 5 and the B-string saddle assembly somehow popped, or was knocked, off
The saddle itself landed at my feet,
but the little screw+spring thingy that adjusts the saddle position flew off somewhere and now I can’t find it
Does anyone know if there’s a generic component (Gotoh, Schaller, etc) that would correctly replace it?
And if so, which one?
(the bridge is Zon-branded)

You might try Allparts, which has a lot of different screws, springs, and saddles.
Or if you can figure out who actually made the bridge for Zon, they might be able to help. Hipshot has been awesome in helping me with replacement parts for their bridges and tuners, for instance.

I would say take one of the other screws to Fastenal (they probably have an equivalent) and use a spring from a click pen.
Drag a large magnet around the floor under all of the furniture until you find them.
... or put a fresh bag in the vacuum cleaner, set it to max power, and give it a spin round the floor. If you hear a metallic clink at any point, you've probably found it
Might be faste than trying to source a replacement screw?
If I drop something off the table where I work on my basses it's almost impossible to find again. The carpet might as well be camouflage, nothing small stands out. Plus, having fallen straight off the table, it will then bounce ten feet in any direction.
Vacuuming is a great idea!

Hmm, any time I've lost a small screw or spring, I go to my local hardware store (Not a box store) and am nearly always able to find a replacement.
Best of luck!
I believe the Zon intonation screws are M3x0.5. Sounds like that particular saddle was hanging on by less than a full thread. You’ll need to get a longer screw and may need to trim it down if you can’t find the proper length.
