Customer Questions & Answers

  • Question: What is the Hipshot KickAss High-mass Bass Bridge designed for?

    Answer: The Hipshot KickAss High-mass Bass Bridge is specifically designed for 5-bolt Fender bass guitars. This means it is optimized to fit seamlessly on various Fender models, providing enhanced performance and stability. The bridge features a high-mass design that improves sustain and tonal quality, making it a favorable upgrade for bassists looking to enhance their sound. By replacing your stock bridge with the KickAss model, you can experience more resonance and improved tone, especially during live performances or recording sessions.
  • Question: How does the high-mass design of the Hipshot KickAss Bridge affect sound?

    Answer: The high-mass design of the Hipshot KickAss Bridge significantly enhances the bass guitar's sound by increasing sustain and improving clarity. This design facilitates better vibration transfer from the strings to the body of the guitar, resulting in richer tones. Bassists often notice a more pronounced low-end response and added definition in their sound, particularly in complex musical passages. Therefore, if you play genres that emphasize bass clarity, this bridge can be a valuable upgrade for better overall performance.

    Answer: Yes, many musicians find that installing the Hipshot KickAss Bridge is a straightforward process, especially if they have basic guitar maintenance skills. The bridge comes with all necessary mounting hardware and is designed to fit directly into the existing holes of a 5-bolt Fender bass. However, if you are unfamiliar with instrument setup or are concerned about affecting your guitar’s tone or playability, consulting a professional luthier might be ideal. This ensures proper installation and setup for optimal performance.

    Answer: The Hipshot KickAss Bridge is crafted from high-quality materials designed for durability and performance.

Therefore, whether you’re performing in a rock band or an experimental jazz group, this bridge can help you achieve the sound you desire.
  • Question: Is the Hipshot KickAss Bridge compatible with all Fender bass models?

    Answer: While the Hipshot KickAss Bridge is designed specifically for 5-bolt Fender bass guitars, compatibility may vary depending on the model and its specific measurements. It is essential to check the specifications of both the bridge and the bass guitar to ensure a proper fit. Generally, it fits many Fender precision and jazz bass models, but double-checking compatibility with your specific guitar model is advisable for the best results.
  • Question: What color options are available for the Hipshot KickAss Bridge?

    Answer: The Hipshot KickAss Bridge is available in several finishes, with the most popular option being the sleek black finish. This black color not only adds a stylish look to your bass guitar but also offers a layer of protection against external elements.
