Replacement bridge for an ibanez

I'm replacing it due to generally poor build quality. It's very flimsy, as danomite said the saddle screws unscrew themselves, and they rattle. It's just a very cheap, flimsy bridge. The B20 does looks like it would be a direct replacement, but I'm looking for something around 35 bucks, and those seem to range form 45 to 80.
 
My Ibby has an old Gotoh bridge. Absolutely recommended!

Could you give me the model name of the bridge? I've heard good things about gotohs, especially from people who hate Badass bridges. That, and Warmoth sells them pretty cheap.

Edit: Also, there's lots of bridges with the 4 screws in the front, but not the ones in the back like this: http://www.guitarfetish.com/Vintage-Style-Bass-Bridge-fits-Fender-Basses-Chrome_p_831.html
Would that work, or would there be stability issues?
 
it's probably going to be hard to find a direct replacement. You're probably going to have to get a like string spaced bridge and re-drill for it. The one you pictured has 5 in the back, which seems to be a fairly typical design. Yours is 2 in front, 4 in back, which I can't say I've seen in many other designs.
