Help! EBMM EVH Bridge

[JT3]

I have a 93 EBMM EVH that needed new saddles. Custer service said no offset saddles were available and a Gotoh/Floyd would do the trick. It did. Now I needed to replace the saddles for the Gotoh and I can't find them. EBMM said they want $25 each plus $25 for shipping. That $175. That seems way out of line. Any one have some advice?
Please, no Graphtec. Thanks guys.

Hey JT3, you might try ordering the saddles through your local Music Man dealer as we charge retail, their pricing will be different. We also charge a flat rate shipping fee of $7.50 for U.S. customers, not $25.00

Are all of your original saddles trashed? I have two brand new non-offset saddles I would be willing to trade for two decent offset saddles...

Willyd, Thank you for your reply. I'll do that.
I thought the shipping was out of line but here's the email I received.
"Call us toll free @ 866-823-2255. The saddles are $25.00 each, shipping is a flat rate of $25.00."

Stramm8, I stashed my offsets years ago in the hopes of having them re-chromed someday. Thank you anyway.

JT3, that must have been a typo, it is in fact $7.50 or $10.00 for Hawaii. Apologies for the confusion.

Thank you WillyD. I've always had great respect for EB. The best as far as I'm concerned. I play out and teach a lot and my go to's are always my EBs. The best necks in the business.

So far every online supplier has given me the wrong item info. on these saddles. Why is it so difficult to get parts for an item that's in the market place? This is nuts.

No one has had this problem? Still can't find the right saddles for the Gotoh/Floyd for the EBMM EVH.

There is another Thread out there that talks about this, but I could not find it.

Keep me updated, I need new saddles too!
