Would this bridge be suited to drop in a JMJM/Sqr Deluxe

I'm not good with dimensions. Seems like it may make a viable replacement for the TOM style bridge of it can drop right int.

Anyone know if there would be any issues?

It's the mosrite bridge that comes up from time to time.

Main functional difference is that it's a roller bridge.

Always best to check dimensions ... ;)
52mm E-E spacing which is usually good. 9" radius. Your post hole separation needs to be around 74mm. Some chance that the posts might use your existing TOM threaded bushings. Otherwise its own post holes are 8mm diameter.

I’ve built a few guitars using this bridge - it’s nice, but it’s tall. Taller than a tune-o-matic. I just measured one that sits as low as it can go, and it’s 20mm from the body to the low E string.

I hope that helps.
