well looks like i was forced to get a new bridge my old one needed to be replaced when i went to set the bass up up today i noticed that it was very worn down and some of the screws got rusted shut/stripped and its starting to bend so i went ahead and ordered a gotoh 201 waiting for it to come in the mail fingers crossed that everything works out okay.

Any one here have any exp with the gotoh 201? i hear alot of things about giving your bass really high action and you have to shim your neck pocket if this is the case i'll save the bridge for one of my parts basses or esp p-bass and buy a different bridge
