Hey folks,

first of all 'Hello' to you guys here! I have a Precision Bass from 1978 (S87...) that doesn't have the original bridge on it. I want to exchange it for a an original one from this era. In which period did Fender use the same bridges as used on mine (from ... to)? I need to know, so I can look for it on eBay etc.

Thanks so much,
Kai :)

Fender is still using the exact same bridge on some models. Just order one from your friendly Fender dealer.

Pretty sure the original one was the one with the heavily chromed saddles with one center slot in it. I think they started using it about 1969 or so. I like the one with the threaded saddles, but that is just me. I'd avoid one with the smooth saddles that have no slot at all.
