Fender HiMass 4-String Bass Bridge Assembly with Brass Saddles - Chrome

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.

This bridge is a quality piece in comparison to the standard bridge for my MIM Jazz Bass. It looks great, is well built, adds sustain and heft to the notes that wasn’t there before. It was a direct fit for my bass; just unscrew the old one, and screw this one in place and you are good to go. It looks good, and sounds good too! This is an awesome, easy upgrade for your ax.

Just put this on my Fender MIM P bass. Made by Fender for Fenders, fit is prefect. Set up was straight forward. Set the string height using Music nomad equipment small kit. The bridge made it so I could get the string action down to .075, no buzz. Used a tape measure to rough set intonation, before I put on the strings. (Check on line Fender has direction for that) I was lucky rough setting was very close so not much adjustment needed. I used a (Peterson strobe, strobo clip HD, clip on). Real like the bridge sounds great, looks great, I liked it enough that I just ordered another one for my Jazz bass. Buy one you won't be sorry.

I love it. Easy to install looks great sounds amazing. I just screwed it down and immediately the fret buzz and intonation issues were gone. Didn’t need any adjustment at all. Highly recommend.

I installed this bridge on my squire paranormal jazz bass. I immediately noticed a big difference in sustain. Tone not so much. The bass arrived with a perfectly straight neck and remained so after installing the bridge. I knocked off a star because the screws for the intonation were almost impossible to adjust. I managed to adjust it but it would have been better had there been screws with Allen wrench tips. It was a tossup between this bridge and the kickass bridge but since all I do now is play along with recordings I went with this one because I liked having ‘fender’ stamped on it. I have the saddles as low as they can go and that works for me. I think if you wanted lower action a shim would be necessary, however, some filing of the frets would be required depending on the instrument. With the exception of the intonation issue I think this is a solid bridge and well worth the time and expense. ***Update*** I found a little Phillips head screwdriver that fits perfectly that solved the intonation problem. I also loosen the strings so the saddles move more easily. I put a drop of D’Addario lubricant on the nut slots because tuning the bass is a little rough. *** Update #2 *** I decided to put a .25 shim under the neck to correct the neck angle. This will more than take care of the string height issue.

Really tightened up the sound and improved the instrument quality of my Squier CV Jaguar and Squier Affinity PJs! It definitely has some weight to it and is true to it's name.

Bought this to give my bass some tuning stability. Works great and is HEAVY. Also looks great on basses

I bought this specifically to upgrade the stock bridge on my Squire Precision Bass. It was completely easy to install as a direct replacement. No issues. It feels much more solid than the janky Squire bridge, and it definitely has more mass as well. The fact it is Fender branded is definitely a bonus and a nice touch. My only gripe is that this brand new bridge did not come with any mounting screws. I was forced to reuse the old mounting screws from my Squire bridge. Not a total disappointment, and honestly not even an inconvenience. But it would be nice if Fender included quality new mounting screws along with the new bridge. Nothing "wrong" with the Squire screws, but we all know that Squires use lower quality and cost components to keep prices low, even if it comes down to screws. Including 5 quality mounting screws with the new bridge would not affect the selling price much, if at all. Even if it was the difference of $1 in additional cost, it would be worth it IMO for the peace of mind. We're talking about 5 screws here, Fender. Buy em in bulk, and package 'em with the bridge. I'm still happy with the bridge. Just hope someone from Fender might read this feedback.

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.

Top qualité ! Et pour le prix franchement incroyable

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.

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 ,

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.
