The M5 Mastery Bridge for your Rickenbacker® features our patented saddle design along with four solid stainless mounting posts that mount into the body plate via two cone point screws on each end of the plate. Includes two 18-8 stainless body plate mounting screws.
The unique design of the M5 Mastery Bridge for Rickenbacker® features four mounting post screws that securely lock into the body-plate via two stainless cone point screws on each end of the plate. Posts won’t loosen during performance and the bridge will stay in place during string changes and vibrato use. Baseplate and body-plate are hand straight-line sanded like our original offset bridge. Optional bridge cover is hand finished like the baseplate and blends well with existing hardware. With around 50 lbs of pressure bearing down on two saddles, string energy is utilized unlike any other bridge available. The M5 has a vintage footprint and no modifications to the guitar are required.
Held off buying one of these for my 330 for for a while. Definitely extremely glad i got one though, i really do love how solid and over engineered it is. The tone did change, i lost some of that banjo tone on my 330 which i kind of liked. But after the new string sound settles the guitar really sings. Feels like a more consistent resonance. It resonates into the body in a different way which i enjoy now. Was a bit shocked initially but i think overall it’s a good sound.
Hated the look of it initially but now it’s on the guitar it doesn’t look too crazy.
Indestructible for touring. Ultra reliable for recording. I’d definitely buy another one in the future.
Perfect fit, easy to install and more stable and best of all hasn’t changed the look at all, you wouldn’t know it wasn’t the original bridge without a close look
