Strong match

Who this is for

  • Chasing down rattle and buzz coming from the stock offset bridge
  • Players who keep breaking strings right at the saddle
  • Fixing the existing bridge instead of replacing the whole assembly

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Tune-o-matic, hardtail or Strat-style bridges — wrong barrel geometry
  • Anyone chasing a tone change; this is a wear part
  • Guitars where the real fault is loose bridge posts or thimbles

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

Set of six

All strings get the same barrel, so heights stay matched. Mixing new and old barrels leaves an uneven radius.

Detail 02

E-to-E spacing 2-1/16 in (52.07mm)

Fixes how far apart the outer strings sit. Measure yours first; wider or narrower pulls the E strings toward the fret ends.

Detail 03

Length 13/32 in (10.34mm)

This is the span across the bridge frame. Too long or short and the barrel won't sit square in the slots.

Detail 04

Height/thickness 5/16 in (7.92mm)

Sets the action range available from the barrel itself. Matching stock dimensions means your bridge height setting carries over.

Detail 05

Offset shape

Built around the offset bridge layout used on those four models, not the flat plate bridges on Teles and Strats.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Measure your current barrels — offset bridges have shipped in more than one size
  2. 02Plan on resetting intonation and action afterward; you need a tuner and screwdriver
  3. 03Barrels only — bridge frame, springs and height screws are your existing ones

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Will these fit my Jazzmaster bridge?

They're cut for the offset bridge used on Mustang, Jaguar, Jazzmaster and Jagstang. Measure your outer string spacing at 2-1/16 inch and barrel length at 13/32 inch to confirm.

02Do I have to re-intonate after installing?

Yes. Each barrel rides on its own screw, so string length changes when you swap them. Set intonation at the 12th fret once the guitar is back up to pitch.

03Will this stop strings jumping out of the saddle?

It replaces the barrels the strings sit in, so worn or shallow grooves get reset. If the strings are jumping because of bridge rock or wrong string gauge, this won't address that.

04How hard is the install?

It's a string change plus a barrel swap — no drilling or soldering. Work one string at a time so the bridge stays seated, then reset action and intonation.
