Don't know if it makes a difference but I only had an issue with strings bouncing off my Jag when I used 9s and the like. Using a great big fuckoff set of 13s, I've not had a problem since. I read somewhere that the Jag was designed to use those big strings - not sure if it's true but the bridge definitely prefers them.

Yeah, I've heard that too... My tech guy shimmed the neck to get a better break angle over the bridge which is also supposed to help... I've got 10s on there so maybe I'll go up to 11s and see if that helps...
My Twin's still in its flight case so was playing through the AC15 and it sounded absolutely phenomenal... Will persevere with it the way Leo intended it...

Was having problems with the Mustang bridge on the Jag, notes choking off up the dusty end of the neck, annoying... I was also knocking strings off the bridge with my awesome attacking plectrum style, doubly annoying... So got a regular Jag bridge put on yesterday, it's cleared up the neck radius problem but the strings are still popping off... Other issue is I used to be able to get a B minor cord playing behind the strings with the Mustang bridge, not with the Jag tho'... 🙁
Might have to try a Mastery bridge at this rate... Spendy...
