Threaded saddles for Squier

Would these Fender brand saddles fit the bridge on my 2010 Squier VM Jazz?

Assuming the VM standard bridge is the same as a Squier Affinity's, yes it will fit just fine. I got it to fit in almost perfectly in an Affinity Jazz, only problem is that the screws that came with the new bridge were a bit too long.

Do you mean the screws that came with the new saddles? I'm not looking for a whole new bridge, just new saddles. If that's true, would the screws that came with the stock VM bridge fit the new saddles? Or are the screws metric and won't fit an Amercian made saddle?
 
I've played this game a little with my 1997 Affinity P. There are 'CY', 'IC', 'CD' and 'CT' serial numbers and there doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason to the JIS verses SAE threads from one to the other. :rollno:

My 1997½ Squier Affinity P on the other hand is a 'CI' version and has US or SAE threads on it but that doesn't mean any others will or will not.

Thankfully Squier never had these made in Merrie Ole England or there'd be Whitworth threads to worry about too.
