Guild/Hagstrom influence?

[GGJaguar]

This is a MIM Fender Rascal Bass. That tailpiece looks familiar.

https://www.premierguitar.com/fender-rascal-review says

the Rascal’s looks and hardware are influenced by the Guild Starfire, Danelectro Longhorn, and Fender’s own Bass VI and Coronado models.

I also note that bridge was used by FMIC on the 90's Starfire reissue so FMIC could legitimately claim Hagstrom was not a direct influence, if it mattered to them.

if it mattered to them.

It doesn't. FMIC is a bully.

Guild and Hagstrom shared a number of electric guitar parts.

Wonder if it would work on a NS Bisonic Starfire bass.

Just get measurements for the mounting holes... Seems to me I recall reports that the 90's reissue bridge does not have the same mount spacing as the vintage bridges but I also seem to recall that a NS bridge doesn't fit a vintage so maybe the 90's and the NS are the same spacing.
