Adjustable string spacing Tremolo??

Hi there,

Anyone knows a tremolo, or saddles with adusjtable string spacing?

I kind of made a mistake in a neck (too narrow) and now the only way of correcting it, will be reducing the string spacing at the bridge.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks

I've never seen saddles that is adjustable.

In general, Fender saddle pitch is 11.2mm or 11.3mm, some aftermarket bridge such as Gotoh is 10.8mm.
But you can find some bridge that is 10.5mm saddle pitch.

I've never seen any bridge that will do what you want.

Sorry.
