High Mass Solid Brass 5 String Bass Bridge for Precision/Jazz Bass etc
Pickup available at Northwest Guitars
Usually ready in 1 hour
The High Mass Bass Bridge 5 string is a supreme quality bridge that's designed to vastly improve five string bass guitars. Machined from a solid brass block this bridge will add sustain, resonance, and attack without colouring your bass tone. It also features a dual loading string mount system, so you can top load it or string thru if you prefer.
Adjustable String Spacing
Uniquely this bridge features an 18mm string spacing as standard, however, you can adjust the strings in the saddle for side-to-side movement, allowing you to space the strings to your personal preference, or ensure they sit properly over the pole pieces of your pickups.
Top Loading
When top loading, the strings are top mounted to the back of the bridge, which means a slightly lesser string tension than that of a through body. This will make the guitar sound more resonant and lively, improving the overall tone of your bass guitar.
String Thru
When using a string thru bass bridge, you'll have increased tension versus that of a top-loading bridge, which some players prefer as it gives you a more stable playing platform, particularly when you're plucking with your fingers. It comes down to personal preference which you prefer, as both will sound equally great, just different.
