Which brand/type of bridge is this?

I got this on a second hand VM Jaguar.
Looks a bit like a Mustang bridge, but note the off-centre grooves and height adjustments screws.
Never seen this before.

This is the closest one I can think of:

Doesn't explain the off-center grooves, though.
/e after some googling the HH Jazzmaster bridge looks similar as well but again the grooves are centered.

I just spent fifteen minutes searching around and couldn't find one exactly like that.

It's a good bridge though. Works fine.

Previous owner probably frankensteined some saddles built for Telecasters or something.

Yep, tele saddles ...
So, similar to Fender's 0081239049 bridge, except with laterally offset saddle string grooves. Everything lines up correctly on a tele because the intonation screw hole positions are offset in the bridge plate (so that the strings have a clear path to the string-through-body holes), which brings the saddle grooves back in line. That's not the case on a jag/JM bridge plate, so it's an odd choice.

Yeh i was wondering...does it actually align? I know the screws have some give but everything must be mms off, unless there is some other modification.

That is all that matters. Why cha he hardware when you’re happy with it?
Having said that, if the strings don’t align properly, replace the saddle with a Staytrem unit.
