Something else you may or may not be able to notice from those pics. The Low E/A saddle height adjustment screw on the Low E side is right up against the far bass side bridge plate attachment screw. And yet, the A string could still be lengthened just a hair (leaving the low E only slightly flat). That's not my only concern, though. I should be getting better intonation than a traditional vintage saddle setup, but the B/high E saddle (the one I had to back the screws out of and flip) does not angle as much as the low E/A -- perhaps as Boris said, the saddle I'm using for my D/G is the one that should be in that position and flipped...regardless, there are no markers to indicate which one would need to be flipped, and I don't have another set of strings laying around, so I'd really rather not keep flipping em to see if I get one that works!! I'm guessing I have to just get new saddles...any bets whether Allparts would send me a correct saddle?

Thanks guys.
