My EX5 had the same bridge and eventually swapped it out for something with lower and thinner saddles. Only dropped level by a small amount but still much lower action than before.

Thanks Waz,
I had planned on Babicz individual bridges. But at 70 bucks a string it was hard to justify the cost given that I don’t actually play bass!

I’m going to run with it as is, I might trim the nut a bit and do some other fiddling and fettling. I have access to Machine tools at work so FrankenHacking the bridge is a possibility. I’ve got to pull the strings off and fit the electrics anyway, as well as get the HS logo on it. We can play around with it some more.
