So Iv'e bought a Jaguar HH model and I love it, the only issue is that i want to put a mute lever on the bridge, however I'm not even sure it would work as the HH doesn't have the traditional Jag or Mustang bridge and instead comes with an Adjust-o-matic bridge. Has anyone tried this on their HH models? Or know if the HH bridge would fit the mute lever?

Waited a while to see if anyone has experience with this, but I'll get the ball rolling…

Never done that, never even seen a Tune-o/Adjust-o-matic bridge with the Jag mute.
:wink:
In principle, it's of course possible, but there are more things to consider than with a Jag bridge.
Some thoughts: Fitting with the pickguard should be relatively easy. But if the mute plate is too close to the humbucker, that's a bigger problem. And getting enough clearance under the bridge for the mute might require so much shimming the bridge runs out of practical adjustment limits…
Personally, I'd first check how a regular Jaguar bridge would fit - AFAIK, the post spacing is the same.

Anyways, if you move on with the mod, I'd like to see pics of the process and the outcome.
