Fender 6-Saddle Hardtail Classic/Standard Series Bridge Assembly - Chrome

This is my go-to bridge for hardtail guitar builds, reliable and built like a tank. Lots of adjustment room as well in case I don't route my neck pocket perfect, or if the neck/fretboard is too low or too high. In other words, this bridge allows me to make mistakes and it's still forgiving :-) Nice subtle Fender roll mark on each of the saddles as well. So far I've done at least six with these, and they're all superb.

This is a high quality hardtail bridge. I installed it on a MJT hardtail strat body. I wish the finish was optional, like an aged one, a nickel one, a gold one, etc. But zero complaints in the functionality or build quality so far.

Typical Fender made in Taiwan quality. The 50’s bent steel saddles are what they are. It did not fit my project but I hope the pictures help others avoid my mistake. Fender Part Number 0060068000

I bought these to fix an intonation problem with a tremelo type bridge. I only needed the saddles, so for 20 bucks I wasn't loosing much if they didn't work. The OEM fender tremelo saddles priced at around 60 bucks, had inconsistencies in regard to how they were made. The area of the saddles where the strings pass over them had a raised ripple in the bent bar stock used in production and caused intonation to be impossible. My father, who is a guitar builder discovered this with a magnifying glass after a lot of trial and error on my part over more time than i appreciate. The string spacing was the same at 1/16" so I thought I would give these a try. They are heavier and longer than the ones being replaced (only by a few millimeters) but I didnt know that until I received them as the description is sparse. In spite of the differences these saddles did fix my issue and this Amercan made Fender Stratocaster will tune and stay that way even when using the tremolo bar. Many have said it and now I will say it too...the largest guitar maker in the world needs to get thier QC/QA issues under control. People like me who have supported this guitar maker (for 30 plus years) deserve better quality. If they don't get a grip their customers will go somewhere else. I spent a hundred hours going over every inch of a beautiful instrument just to get it to tune up properly. I won't do that again and will return it instead. And, who would have thought that telecaster saddles would fix a stratocaster...the irony is not lost on me. The fact that this long shot worked is unexpected and quite honestly, very wrong. Thanks to my dad for figuring this out...as many guitarists and builders/artists know, tuning issues are sometimes hard to diagnose and sometimes, there is no solution due to bad quality. It's a shame that $500 to $1000 guitars made in Inonesia, Phillipines, Japan (Japan is making the best guitars in the world right now) and even China are made better and have more features than a $2400 guitar made in USA. That's my rant! Hope you enjoyed it!

Nice bridge real fender park , ( made in Mexico )

Nothing special. The string thru holes and mounting holes had big burrs on then that would scrape the finish. I had to file them off. Bits of the chrome flash came off too. then there are no screws so there is a trip to the hardware store. really junk with Fender saddles. lame sellers offing lame product. do not waste your time. look for and actual fender part with screws.

This is a quality replacement/upgrade for many guitars on the market today. Quite often a weak point on lower price point guitars, the bridge bolts on easily and is easy to intonate. Looks good too.

Man, I love Fender parts. Minimally more expensive than bargain bin parts, but everything fits properly, works like it should and has a nice, slick coat of chrome (or nickel). Either way, the 6 saddle hardtail is unparalleled, particularly for the price. Package doesn't include mounting screws, as it does from some retailers, but they're easily sourced elsewhere.

Just needed one saddle but this was a snip to buy, so hey, I have 5 spares now ha ha. Typical Fender quality which translates to brilliant! Love Fender, (love Gibson too by the way).

Keinen Schrauben! Now I gotta find some screws by myself. A a a a a a a a a a

The screws in the saddles cant be adjusted. I tried 0.05 hex key that fits my other guitars bridges. The saddles are too low, they just lay on fretboard with a lot of buzz. I triee to swap the saddle screws but normal size wont fit. So I cant adjust high enough. Theres also no string guide on saddles. Will not order again. Saddles also do not line up, they seem to cover the holes of the strings.

Hardtail strat, worked perfectly.

Ich hab mir diese Bridge geholt für eine Strat an der ich etwas rum schraube. Lasst euch vom Hersteller nicht täuschen, das Produkt hat alles andere als Fender Qualität. Die Sattel lassen sich mit den gängigen Sechskantschlüsseln nicht einstellen, passende werden aber nicht mitgeliefert, genauso wie dazugehörige Schrauben. Nach langem Suchen und Probieren hab ich eine Alternative zum Sechskantschlüssel gefunden und muss sagen, die Sattel sind sehr schwergängig und lassen sich nur schwer bewegen/verstellen. Aber was am schlimmsten ist dass die Höhe der Sattel sich nach nicht all zu langer Zeit wieder verstellt, was dazu führt dass die Gitarre immer wieder neu eingestellt werden muss was viel Zeit und Nerven kostet. Für das Geld gibt es eindeutig bessere Hardtail-Bridges , im nachhinein war meine vorherige selbst deutlich besser, ich habe mich leider von der coolen Optik und dem Markennamen täuschen lassen.
