    I wanted to replace the stock Fender Hi-Mass Bass bridge on my 2018 Fender Precision Ultra bass guitar. I like the look of brass saddles and I always felt that the hi-mass bridge just looked too big. I bought the replacement bridge from Musiclily on Amazon - check them out!

    Just bought the same bridge for my Jazz Bass (2011 American Special). Waiting for my new set of LaBella flats to get here so can do everything at once. Looks like it’ll be an easy swap.

    Put the exact same bridge on my fender MIM Mustang bass. It made a big difference in the sound.

      I don't know if I am imagining it, but my bass feels better playing it... who knew

    I think this bridge upgrade was worth it for you because you like the result. For my own basses, I have never replaced a bridge that wasn’t actually broken in some way.

    Dewalt GyroMax is the Boss! Saved my wrists a lot of strain.

    Really don't see the point of swapping to that bridge. You've gained nothing and lost mass in the bridge. If you were going to make it a string thru body, fair enough but you're still stringing from the back off the bridge. The saddles sit so high on the new one as well, you're going to lose a lot of the string vibration that transfers through the body. Honestly man, total downgrade.

    be careful when using power tools, screws can strip or even break!!!!

    Why not keep the bridge and change the saddles.

      I found the hi-mass bridge to bulky looking - my new bridge looks and plays great!
