Looking for american standard hardtail bridge dimensions?

My brother works at a machine shop and I had an idea to try a few different metals for my thinline/ la cab build. I showed him a picture of the bridge and he thinks he can do a bridge plate as well as the saddles. I just need a mechanical drawing with dimensions. Any help would be great.

No. The one I'm talking about is only made by fender. It has offset intonation screws, stainless steel saddles. The exact same bridge that's on the original fender la cab. Thanks for responding though.

FenderŪ American Standard Flat Mount

Warmoth has some plate dimensions here.
Maybe somebody has the saddle dimensions?

Exactly what dimensions do you want? Be specific.



Show a picture of the bridge you're talking about. Are you talking about a Strat hardtail bridge? You can't get good answers if you don't ask good questions.

I've never seen a drawing with exact dimensions of the Fender product.

I wonder how close the Gotoh replacement is to it?
