Post subject: Blacktop Jaguar bridge post spacing? Replacement bridge?

I'm new to the forum and had two questions. I have a Blacktop Jaguar that I am modding and have wanted to replace the bridge with something better. I've already installed a bone nut, rewired it with premium components and installed soapbar sized TV Jones Classics. However, I can't seem to find a bridge (and tailpiece) that fit.

Can anyone tell me for sure what the stock bridge and tailpiece post spacing is? I have measured it the best I can to no accurate conclusion.

Second question: Has anyone replaced the bridge with one that fits and has provided better sustain than stock?

Ideally I want something with height- adjustable saddles, but the only height adjustable tune-o-matics I've seen are the Gotoh 510BN and the Babicz. I don't know if they will fit, since the stock post spacing seems closer together than what I have seen available. Any insights would be appreciated.

Welcome to the forum. :) I don't really have an answer for you but I am a fellow Blacktop Jaguar owner. I changed out the electronics in mine but still have the original pickups. I like what you're doing. Good luck!
