Which model of Fender bass has 3 mounting screw Bridge ?

Badass III doesn't fit it if any ?
And, 3 mounting screw hole spacings can't be compatible with "5 holes" ? I wanted to use badassII for it without screws of each ends.

Thank you, FJBass.

After your comment, I looked through all the catalog of Fender..... and.....

american standard Jazz

american standard precision.

Both , also, has 3 mounting screws, as well as Sting Sig and 51 P.
And new American Deluxe has 3 screws (except Deluxe V with 4).

The old stlye string through body basses , like the Sting, the Telecaster and the original Precision bass , all have only three screws holding the bridge onto the body of the bass.

I beleive the 1980's basses had a three screw mounting too and these basses were not string through bodies.

If you want to use a different bridge with different mounting holes, then plug up the original holes if you have to, and redrill the bass body for the new bridge.

Good luck with it.
