WTB Fender Jaguar type bridge, gold

enteeentee Frets: 93
Looking for a gold coloured Fender Jaguar bridge, for my Harley Benton baritone.  The one it has come equipped with is rubbish and needs modification, for which I do not have the tools.  Anyone?

    Do you mean the stock style bridge with the grooved saddles?
    The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar or tremolo arm, although vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces. In standard usage, tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch. The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term “vibrato” to refer to what is really a tremolo effect.

    I believe so - the one on my HB has what look like screws on their side with grub screws through them.  I have looked around for other similar bridges, and the Jaguar seems to be pretty much exactly the same.
