Will a .130 gauge string fit through most 4-string bridges?

A local guy here plays in b with a fender jazz. Uses a bad ass bridge and "tweaked" the nut. Didnt take much to get it to work nicely. he also swapped the pickups for quarter pounders and replaced the tone/volume pots with a single on/off switch.Tuning a 4 string that low basically turns it into to a meat and potatoes type of bass. Which can work nice if your in a metal band that's dominated by guitars
