Perhaps you could give a clue as to what that FB page is? Incidentally, in the vague hope that it might be in your signature, I had a look at that but all it's got is a broken link to an image that doesn't exist any more, so you might want to fix that.

All the old pictures of the bridge have gone - I'm curious as to whether the screws going towards the bridge saddle pivots are grub screws to hold the pivots in place or whether they bear on protrusions on the pivot piece and push them against string tension, which would avoid any problem with slippage that a grub screw would have. 

I'm sorry, but if you want you can check my FB page for more info ....

Many thanks for your feedback & questions:

1. All my EVO 4 & EVO 5 Bass bridges are not for sale anymore as they are not designed as a retro fit.

Dear Bass lovers, attached a few pics of my new Headles EVO-X4 Bass in progress ...

As a Bass builder & designer myself there are so many different body shapes with similarities… if someone post a Fender copy it’s not a problem, no comments about the design, as it’s considered by the majority as normal ….My design is unique & it’s not a copy .... Cheers

The Bass Bridge is an essential link in the tone chain, ranking right up there with your Bass’s pickups and the wood the body is made from in setting the core tone of the instrument, especially if you want to hear deep, harmonically rich resonance throughout the body of the Bass Guitar.
The more components a Bass Bridge has, the more energy is lost in the transmission, and the less part of the Bass’s frequency spectrum is passed back to the strings.
 
Do bass bridges make a difference?
Bass players have long debated how exactly a new bass bridge changes the tonality of the Bass. There's no consensus: some claim to be able to hear the differences, while others say that they're just listening to a placebo effect.
 
Do fixed Bass Bridges have more sustain?
Having a fixed Bass Bridge on your Bass will allow you to set up lower string action. Fixed Bass Guitar bridges have more contact with the Bass Guitar's body, which results in better sustain than Bass Guitars with floating bridges. This fact may be the purchase point for some Bassist ….

So the feather and scale like tiers get sanded away in to a contour?

I ratgher liked them, thought they looked stunning!

Or is it just down to the angle and lighting?

Not exactly…

Love the body shape and the 'tiered' top half and Rick and Thunderbird esq center.
