I prefer the Staytrem to the Mastery but both are way better than the stock bridge.
Have the Mastery for sale if anyone's interested.

Do you happen to know if this is a one-to-one fit on a Squier Bass VI? If so I'd be interested. I deeply dislike the wonk-o-matic bridge it came with.
EDIT: went to Mastery website and apparently this is the one that fits mine. If it's same as what you're selling, let's slide into PMs?

You're gonna want the Staytrem. Mastery doesnt make a bridge wide enough to intonate a Bass VI. Staytrem does.

Looks like EGC can do a rewind, and they're getting back to me with an estimated cost and timeframe. Fralin came back as well and said they had experience with these as well. I'm sure there are a half dozen places that can do this just fine and I'm trying not to overthink this!
Ended up sending to Fralin to rewind the TB bridge pickup. I'm sure it'll be nice. Then I'm bringing it to a local tech to clean up frets, cut a new brass nut and clean up the electronics. I'm guessing late September I'll have it back.

Indeed. My only boutique winder experience has been with Novak, but I think they've all seen a few dozen OG Wide Range and TB pickups at this point. You piciked someone reputable, and I bet you'll be happy with the end result.

Bit the bullet and ordered an Ampeg RB-210 combo. 500 W, 39 lbs.
My current smaller-gig rig (homebuilt TL-606 + Mesa M6 Carbine) is about 100 lbs total. I love the sound of it, but it's just getting to be too much to haul out to shows.

related to the manufacturing of aluminum guitars, I have a compact milling machine on the way, along with a set of r8 collets and a couple carbide end mills. It should speed up a couple of the very time-consuming processes.
