Hipshot KickAss Bass Bridge is awesome!
I bought a used Squire Vintage Jazz Bass and wanted to beef it up a bit, so I bought a Hipshot KickAss Bass Bridge for it. The 5 screw mount fit perfectly, sustain is better, overall better sound as compared to the original cheapo bridge. Very happy with it and pleased with the looks too (see attached pic). It's very well made and easy to adjust for each string.. not just up and down, but also side to side (which I needed to do to get them positioned over the pickups correctly. Very nice to be able to do that). And, if you want a crisper sound, you can buy some stainless steel inserts for the strings (replaces the brass ones). Haven't tried that. I'm using the brass inserts that come with it and I'm very happy with the sound. But, offers more versatility if you're looking for a different sound. Great bridge and nicely designed and nice to look at. I recommend it!!Read full review

It works
What I liked: It is heavy, and fully adjustable, and they included a couple short screws and springs for the positioning of the individual bridge parts, which I needed to use on my 1980's P bass. What was OK: It isn't a precision fit piece of gear, and the individual bridge pieces can move laterally in the slot in which they ride, so you can adjust the insert for your string spacing, and the bridge piece can move when you tighten the string back in tune. If you raise the string with the adjustment, basically it works the same as the stock bridge; your contact with the bridge is through a pair of very small set screws. I'm not seeing a huge advantage to this except for the adjustability. What was not OK: The chrome was not finished well in all 4 slots in which the individual adjustments ride, near the bottom of the bridge. I'm assuming it just wasn't polished well but is thick enough to prevent rusting.Read full review

How to transform an entry level bass into a killer
We are talking about a real kick-ass bridge, the name says all the story. Fitted in a P-bass style MDF bass, a Hohner Rockwood, it totally transformed the instrument. It was a bit fiddly to install, as it is quite big for the p-bass body and needed extra care while setting the tired bass up again, because it changed the strings height a bit. However, the extra work payed up. The upgrade was tremendous, the bass sound improvement was like changing to new better strings, totaly transformed the mid lows, giving them extra strength and the mid highs were the most clear I have ever heard from this instrument. Now the bass screams for a new pick up set, it gained huge potential, still remaining value for money. I strongly recommend this product, in all its aspects, quality wise, performance wise and value wise.Read full review

This is the best Jazz Bass bridge on the market
A huge leap forward in improved intonation and adjustability compared to the stock 1967 Fender jazz bass bridge that came with my bass, which is cheap junk. This Hipshot bridge is an excellent bridge. The original stock bridge never even placed the strings correctly between the individual string dual pole pieces of the pickups. With this Hipshot bridge they are now correctly aligned. The crazy idea that these vintage guitars are somehow better in quality than modern made guitars is a myth and a joke. The mounting hole spacing on the Hipshot bridge was slightly off compared to the original 1967 vintage Jazz Bass bridge, but close enough to work when the original bridge screws were used. The original screws are a bit smaller in diameter than the ones provided by Hipshot. They were a better fit than the Hipshot provided screws.Read full review

hipshot bridgeis a great value
Fit was perfect , adjusted easily , was able to adjust string spacing , height and intonation to get the feel I wanted. Have used 3 different Hipshot products and have been happy with all of them. Have them installed on a P and a J bass.
