QUESTIONS ABOUT USE OF THE MUSTANG BRIDGE ON AN AVRI JAGUAR??

MangoMoon

Hey Guys,

I'm thinking about replacing the stock bridge on a '62 AVRI Jaguar with a Mustang bridge, but I've got a couple of key questions:

1. Can you still use the original Jaguar string mute with a Mustang bridge?

2. Does the original chrome Jaguar bridge cover fit over the top of a Mustang bridge? Or do you have to dispense with that?

3. Is there any way to adjust string height (saddle height) on a Mustang bridge? Or are the saddles themselves fixed in terms of their individual height?

Many thanx!

1. Should work fine.

2. Also should work fine.

3. Normal Mustang saddles are not height adjustable, but Warmoth makes a version that is.

Many thanks, Christopher! I appreciate your insights, especially your reference to the adjustable Warmoth variety. That style of bridge looks absolutely perfect for my needs, so I've gone ahead and ordered one. Hopefully, it'll work well with the stock string mute, and hopefully, it will adjust down low enough - I'm trying hard to avoid shimming the neck.

All the Best,

Mango

Happy to help!
