Fender Fender® HiMass™ 4-String Bass Bridge Assembly With Brass Saddles

A really good direct replacement for a standard jazz-bass bridge. I've used this on a few different basses and it's an excellent replacement, considerably better in my opinion than the standard jazz bass bridge. It's also considerable cheaper than other 'heavy' hi-mass bridges. Direct replacement and very well-made.

Fits easy, better intonation for tuning and better sound.(looks good two )

This is a nice solid Fender branded bridge, in my opinion the sustain has increased, but not by a massive amount. I found that the the main benefit was tuning stability, which improved over the standard bent metal bridge. Fitting was a breeze as the holes line up perfectly, if you are fitting this to a Fender or Squire branded instrument.

Fitted straight into my old precision copy and is a very nice upgrade to the old slightly scabby bridge. Didn’t break the bank, improves the look feel and adjustment ,

I bought this for a 1998 Fender Jazz Bass Deluxe, which I had already swapped the standard bridge out for a Gotoh high mass bridge several years ago. I didn't find the Gotoh making a blind bit of difference to the tone or sustain of the Jazz bass, and I think it's the same with this new Fender bridge. However, I never expected it would and I bought it for a cosmetic change and something fun to tinker with. So, compared to the last two bridges? The Fender HiMass is a huge bit of metal; whilst the screw holes line up perfectly and the strings travel along the same path as before, the saddles and the string anchor points are a little further back to the string length is increased slightly. The bridge itself is a big unit, even with a few hollowed out points inside it is heavier than the Gotoh, and certainly the standard Fender bent bit of metal. It does what it says, but for a new unit there are a couple of points which I thought were a little short sighted. First off, to adjust the intonation requires a screwdriver, which I prefer to allan keys, but rather than having the screw head on the back of the bridge, it's tucked away down a thin tunnel so requires delving around to find a thin screw driver rather than allowing a multi tool or something similar. The saddles themselves are very wide - whilst the string tension will hopefully keep everything in place, the Gotoh seated the strings far better. For those who like through body stringing, this isn't a feature - it is top loading only, so if your bass has been drilled through and has ferrules fitted, this bridge will cover them up. Finally, the whole unit looks a bit cruder and more angular than in the photo once installed - probably just me, but it looks like it would be more at home on a Gibson Explorer bass rather than a Jazz or Precision. Those little criticisms aside, most of which are very subjective, its a solid piece of kit and so far does the job very well.

Great upgrade, I wasn't expecting much in terms of tone etc, whether that's improved or not I don't know or care, still sounds like a P-bass. Biggest improvements are that the saddles don't splay out while you're playing and it just looks better.

Cheap bass guitar bridge upgrade Fender brand Great design more stable and solid than the original Cost next to nothing but made me so much more happier as bass much easier to set up

Massive difference between the high mass bridge and the standard bridge. Worth every penny would recommend it 100%

Excellent bridge. The quality is good and it is heavy as one would expect from a "Hi-Mass" bridge. I am not entirely sure that changing a bridge is a game changer for a bass but feel relatively certain that it improved the tone and sustain of my bass. This was the final modification after installing an Audere Preamp and Bartolini pickups. The bridge fit on my Squier '70's vibe Precision Bass perfectly. The holes matched up exactly and it was very easy to install with no modification needed to the bass or the bridge. Be sure to remember that it is necessary to set your intonation after installing a new bridge. I held this against my old bridge and adjusted the string lengths so that the intonation would be close as soon as it was installed. The price was right and the quality is good. I am pleased.

If you have a P bass, get this bridge. Fits perfect and is much higher quality than the stock bridge. No issues with it being too high, no need to shim the neck. Actually had to raise the saddles a bit and intonate it of course. Easy peasy. Dont bother with cheap bridges, tried a few and they suck.

Un colega afino un bajo standard como si fuera un 5 cuerdas. Me dejó el puente dobladisimo (gracias a Dios cedió el puente y no el mástil). Compré este como repuesto porque me parecía bonito pero he descubierto que me gustan más los patines modernos que los vintage. Mucho más sólidos. La base es tocha pero se ve imponente. A la mano el puente es cómodo y suave, sin posibles rascones (que provocan muchas veces los patines vintage). Muy contento

Hat perfekt an meinen 2011er Squier P-Bass gepasst und ihn optisch sehr aufgewertet. Kein Vergleich zu dem billig wirkenden, originalen Blechwinkel. Bringt natürlich zusätzliches Gewicht an den Bass, auch wenn es kein riesiger Unterschied ist. Einzig die Saitenlage lässt sich nicht ganz so beliebig tief wie beim Original einstellen, da die massive Grundplatte schon recht dick ist.

Migliore dell'originale. Più solido. regolazioni buone, garantisce un ottima vibrazione delle corde, unito al capotasto in ottone, ha cambiato radicalmente il suono del mio fender jazz bass con un sustain al di sopra di ogni sospetto.
