Perfect string setup
DickPuound 08.09.2021
I bought this in order to get a more precise setup for a Fender Jaguar FSR special (MIJ). The issue is that the guitar has a Gotoh tune-o-matic with a 12'' radius while the guitar is a 9.5''.
I wanted to be able to have the string action following the fretboard radius as it was quite annoying for solos from the 12th fret onwards.
This bridge definitely solved all the issues, you can set every single string perfectly with the added benefits of better tuning stability and slightly more sustain.
I haven't used the tailpice cause I really hate the huge branding on it, although it looks like a nice piece of aluminum, way lighter than the stock Gotoh.
Overall I gave it 4 stars because for a made in Taiwan it's a bit overpriced but couldn't find another item that would have solved my problem.
If you're looking at this for more sustain, I would say it's a bit of a waste of money, but if you're the kind of person that wants to have the guitar setup perfectly, than it's definitely a good acquisition.

Improve my compromises
Ce_Vik 21.07.2017
I got it since a few days, and unless what i thinked about 6 saddles vs tun-o-matic, it is as fast to configure for several reasons :
- the intonation is adjustable with only two screws and the saddles are already well balanced by default.
- the individual strings heights adjustment is very satisfying and i don't spend hours increasing and decreasing the tuno-o-matic left and right screws looking for an impossible compromise. It is easier to understand and to adjust the tension balance.

Product :
The packaging was damaged like if it was a second hand, one of the saddle springs was damaged at the first setting and i removed all of them because they are useless. The screws seemed gripped the first day and one of the saddle (height adjustment) was gripped as well, but it seems better now.
I keeped my inserts and my stop bar, the width is ok, the "FCH" contact is ok but i had to remove the recommended wave joints.

Sound :
It rings better then my gotoh tonepros and i suspect the strings-saddles contacts to be better for heavy gauges (10-62). Pinch harmonics are improved on thin strings.

I recommend it.

A waaaay too costly
L00kian 18.04.2017
I bought that bridge piece to replace a stock Grover piece on my guitar.

Pros:
- A lot more sustain and wider range of tone is now picked up
- No sharp parts in the bridge - strings now endure a lot longer

Cons:
- price
- Babicz logo on the tailpiece - it's just huge, noticeable and awful
- the mounts are too tight - they simply don't fit into the holes on the tailpiece so i had to leave the old tailpiece in place
