Conceived as a drop-in replacement for 3-screw Fender-style bass bridges, Leo Quan Badass III bridges have garnered such universal acclaim in the bass guitar world that they’re now standard-issue hardware on scores of models. What sets the Badass III apart from your typical 4-string bridge? Sweetwater’s bass gurus find that the greater mass of its zinc alloy bridge plate results in a significant sustain boost, with a sharper attack and exceptional definition. Moreover, each saddle sports a set of deep grooves that allow you to experiment and fine-tune your string spacing to taste. Bolster your instrument’s tone, stability, and sustain with a Badass III bridge from Leo Quan!
The story of Leo Quan’s Badass bass bridges begins way back in 1972, a time long before the current golden age of aftermarket instrument upgrades. At that time, most musicians’ hardware options were essentially “stock” or bust. The high-mass, high-sustain design of the earliest Badass bridges won over many of the era’s most famous bassists and guitarists, resulting in brands like Spector, B.C. Rich, and Kramer utilizing the design as the standard option on many models — even Fender has occasionally equipped its instruments with a Badass bridge at the request of legendary musicians like Geddy Lee and Marcus Miller! A half-century later, Leo Quan’s Badass bridges still reign as the go-to bridge for guitar and bass players looking to maximize every drop of sustain, resonance, and definition from their favorite instrument.
