Good evening guys!
I just recently picked up a 98' MIM strat that I'm looking to upgrade the bridge. As far as I can tell it has 52mm spacing and is the 6 pivot screw model. I couldn't figure out how to attach a picture so here's a link to an Imgur post. Sorry if this is a redundant thread, but I used the search feature and queried +brass + stratocaster +bridge to no avail.
Herein lies my two questions:
1) Did I measure the spacing correctly (I'm being incredibly picky about this as the bridge measurements I've seen are all different and unique to themselves) and
2) Does anyone know of any brass bridges that fit this measurement? I've seen that I can replace the saddles with brass saddles, but I'm looking for a solid machined brass bridge. I'm not too concerned with the sustain block, really just looking for a 100% brass bridge.
I've poked around and the best contender seems to be this Charvel tremolo bridge. The spacing is 2 inches E to E so I don't believe that this would translate into my strat (unless it does?)
