HOSCO Fixing bushings for JM/JG/MG bridges

Guitar players of JM/JG/MG, equipped with so-called vintage-style “rocking” bridges, must have been frustrated with poor sustain, string slip from saddles and pitch deviation during arm bending, while greatly appreciating the feel of the era when those cool gears made a debut. These problems are caused by the excess “play” of the bridge post, resulted from the anchor being extremely wide in relation to the diameter of the bridge post, though it was originally intended.

HK-4248BU, fixing bushings, are simple “PUSH-IN” attachment to the bridge feet. No alteration to the original body.
By thickening the feet with the bushings, the rocking movement gets restricted inside the anchor post.
And that drastically leads to reduction of the tuning deviation during arm bending.

Depending on the bridge mounted or alignment of the pickguard, it may require a minor adjustment by sanding the bushing edge off a bit or cutting a slit to enlarge the diameter. But thanks to the nature of POM material, anybody can do it without hassle.

These attachment parts are for EXPORT SALES ONLY.
