Fender Player Mustang PJ Bass Bridge Upgrade Query

Post by X-Ray Spex » Thu Dec 02, 2021 4:31 am

Treated myself to one of the Sherwood Green PJ Mustang basses last year as a gift to myself for surviving 2020 and to help with recording at home.

I love the thing but I play in Drop D a lot and the original bridge with the barrel style saddles are just really plinky and intonation is a bit wonky even after proper setup.

Looking to upgrade to a hipshot or badass style high mass bridge with flat saddles to negate this problem, however have no idea where to start so hoping the OSG hive-mind might have some good recommendations. I'm based in the EU and my budget is up to €100.

Thanks in advance!
