Audiophile sells the old HQ tremolo used on early non-locking S series guitars.  Meron sa Boni branch ng complete kit, New Old Stock.

Ewan ko lang how much they cost now.

A Wilkinson *should* fit the TZ6 posts as well, but I'm not 100% sure of that.

What model is your Ibanez?

its an Ibanez RT240.  alam ko kasi TZ6 yun bridge nun.  merdyo rusty na yun saddles kaya gusto ko na palitan.  its been with me since they one kaya medyo kelangan na magpalit na parts.  what other replacement part can you recommend? ok din wilkinson, a bit pricey though.  any sites where i can order just in case? thanks.

eric,

naisip ko, pwede ko palitan yun saddles na lang, yun lang naman may problem eh.  im looking at graphtech right now. may kamahalan eh. anyway try ko yun site na sinabi mo. im aslo checking this site http://www.graphtech.com/search_results_models.php kaso hindi ko alam alin model closest sakin.  i think RG421.  di ko sure.

ooops problem pa pala nakita ko meron ibat ibang sizes yun saddles meron pa naka off set? ano yun? pano ko malalaman yun size na mag fit sa bridge ko? thanks.

If I were you, I'd check string spacing at the bridge with your current set of saddles, measure each dimension of the saddles, then email stew-mac.com about which kinds would be good replacements.
