Jazzmaster or Jaguar upgrade bridge

Upgrade your Jazzmaster or Jaguar bridge with this new Bensonite bridge. It is made from 360 brass, available in 2 finish options, Raw Brass or Nickel plate. The bridge is a direct replacement for the traditional jazzmaster "rocking" bridge. No need for messy loctite to keep all your set screws from rattling or the bridge from lowering down over time. The height adjustment posts have sets screws on the back to lock them down, and the saddles fit together tightly and just like the popular mustang bridge, are machined with staggered sizes to create a 9.5 radius. When I was working on this design it occurred to me that since this style of bridge is meant to move in sync with the tremolo, it made no sense to have a smooth surface in the string slots. The stainless steel saddles have a bead blast finish, which creates a rough surface for the strings to better grip, making the whole unit more stable.
