Description
This isn't a drop-in conversion, it changes the bridge mounting entirely. If you want that setup, the J Mascis model comes with it built in, worth comparing before modding your own.

Installation Guide
This is how the Squier J Mascis Jazzmaster is built (TOM bridge plus the Jazzmaster floating tailpiece), but it's a factory-built hybrid, not a bolt-on option here. Converting means new post holes in a completely different location and pattern, not a like-for-like swap.
