Apologies for the non-Warmoth nature of this question...
But you guys are cool, so I figured I'd take a shot at asking the resident experts about this....
I have a '98 Modulus SweetSpot, and am curious if there are any bridges (I.E. Hipshot, etc.) that share the screw pattern of an ABM 3705.
It's not the end of the world, as the bass is a player, not a show-piece....
Meaning, I'll re-drill if I need to.... Just trying to save a step to upgrade to the much-improved modern hardware.....

The Schaller Bass-Bridge 3D-5 looks like it might fit, but I can't find any technical drawings of the ABM-3705 to compare it to. Since you have the actual part there, you could measure it and compare it to the Schaller. Also, Allparts actually sells the ABM-3705, if you just need to replace what you have. They're pricey little rascals, though.

Thanks for the tip!
I'm a big fan of the Hipshot stuff...
I need to have spacing adjustment... I have this one spread to the max....
So my fan-boy self is hoping I can replace the ABM (and all of it's metric evils) with a type 'A'.... I can dream, right?
