Yup.


A couple more details. the Barden sites do say the hardware on the saddles is Imperial. Interestingly at GuitarPartsResource and elsewhere, the Barden bridge assembly has an Allparts style parts number , TB 51xx-xxx, just like the metric Allparts TB 5125-001 does.

Also, for those needing nickel, not chrome, the Stew Mac # 0099 is chrome, and the Allparts TB 5125-001 is definitely nickel plated.

The big disadvantage of the Allparts with its big spade bit headed height screws, if string break over the barrels is real crucial. Smaller headed height screws often will be needed, depending on the application. Otherwise they're real neat. $ 48 is Allparts MSRP, retail should be less.

Wassup with this one guy selling Barden bridge assemblies for $ 119.99?
