Jazzmaster Bridge
Fix common the problems with your Jazzmaster bridge with this high quality Bensonite jazzmaster replacement bridge, compatible with most Jazzmaster, Jaguar, or Mustang guitars equipped with the vintage style "rocking" bridge.
1- Vibration and string down pressure in your stock jazzmaster bridge often causes the height adjustment screws to slowly lower, requiring them to be glued to hold position. This bridge comes with 2 soft tipped set screws on the back that lock down the height adjustment posts, preventing any movement.
2 - A bead blast finish on stainless steel saddles help them grip the strings, improving stability of the rocking bridge tremolo
3 - Set string radius of 7.25'', 9.5'', or 12” - non adjustable to eliminate vibration problems with those 12 tiny set screws.
4 - Saddles fit tightly in the bridge to eliminate any side to side movement or annoying vibrations.

I highly recommend a slighter thicker string gauge (I prefer 11s but 10s can do the trick) and a neck shim to give you an increase in down pressure on the bridge. Locking tuners and a well cut nut are also very helpful in getting best results on a jazzmaster or jaguar equipped with a tremolo system.
