Bridge covers for basses: truth or fiction?

Postby drbassman » Tue Mar 24, 2009 6:44 am

A friend of mine said he heard that Mosrite made two different bridge covers for their basses. One for the one pickup model and one for the 2 pickup models. I've never heard anything like that before. Is there any truth to this notion?

Well, I can't recall hearing anything of that nature, however I have seen some early 1 pickup Basses, in which a small piece of the pickguard was cut into to make the Bridge Cover fit correctly.
make the Mos' of it, choose the 'rite stuff.
