Music Man JP7 broken saddle - HELP

[bartekskrzek]

Hello,
I’m a happy owner of JP7 for two months.
It had several previous owners, so I knew that the guitar will be not in perfect condition, but
unfortunately, few days ago, when I was changing my strings , the little element of bridge which is below the string fell off.
Any tips how should I reattach that part?

Hi and welcome to the forum! Contact Music Man to get a replacement saddle (give them the serial number of the guitar). You'll need some basic soldering iron skills too.

Thank you so much!
One thing - that model might have the older design of Fishman Powerbridge saddles.
Do you think they are still providing a replacement for this type of bridges?

I can't answer that. You'll have to ask Music Man.

Already did - this type of saddles is not in production anymore. The only thing that I can do in situation like that is replacing older type with new the newer one. As they mentioned on their website, saddles produced after the 2013 might have some output issues with guitars produced 2006-2013, so I also have to switch the output preamp, which they, I assume, provide.
Anyway, thanks for help.

I’d just super glue it back in. Tiny little drop won’t interfere with the function.
