I'm pretty sure that when you go to look for them on the website, you need to look for the ones that are for "narrow spacing" since the saddles and string spacing is more narrow on a MIM Standard than on, say a MIA Tele.

Hope this helps....

Thanks , That helps a lot! The woman I was gonna order from told me I needed a narrow space saddle but the MIM saddles were a different part # so I was very confused.

No problem..... i have a MIM Standard strat, and on those, it has a "vintage" style bridge but its totally obvious that the saddles are smaller and more narrow. So the same would go for the Tele's too. Glad i could help out!

The saddles that I ended up getting for the Bastardcaster (and my Strats too, hmm, all of them are MIM models) are the narrow bullet style and I still had to grind off a bit on each side. Apparently the sizes are not totally retrofitting. It's not a big deal and definitely a great investment in tonal improvement.
