Tuffset WideBoy
For Bass VI and Baritone
£209.00 – £219.00
The best Bass VI bridge ever created
The Tuffset WideBoy is here – purpose-built for low tunings, long scales, and heavy strings. Whether you’re slinging a Bass VI, baritone, or any extended-range Offset, the WideBoy delivers the performance you’ve been waiting for.
Like the Tuffset Original, it fits standard Offset thimbles spaced 73mm (2-⅞”) centre-to-centre.
What makes it WideBoy?
- Supersized Low E saddle: with 50% wider slot – no more binding, even with 0.120 gauge big rigs
- Massive intonation range: at 11mm it’s almost double the original, and all the extra is at the rear – perfect for heavy gauges and low tunings
- Fully locking design means your setup won’t rattle out of place over time, no matter how weighty the low end gets
- Individual saddle adjustment: for both height and intonation, the perfect fit for any neck radius¹
- No string fouling: Let it all hang out! There’s no bridge lip, and the saddles can even overlap the edge – still securely locked in position
- Uncompromising Vibrato Performance: Rocking-post, high-friction saddle design holds tune – even for deep C divers
- Mute-ready: Compatible with standard-sized Mute², so you don’t have to choose between using a mute and intonating your low E

Why we built it
Every Tuffset bridge is crafted to solve real problems, not just look cool. The WideBoy continues that mission — transforming your long-scale Offset into a dialed-in, tuning-stable, vibrato-friendly machine.
Players in the baritone and Bass VI community have been telling us the same thing: you love the Tuffset’s baritone-friendly features, but compatibility with the heaviest strings would be the cherry on top.
So, we listened – and engineered a solution.
The WideBoy features a wider low E saddle, custom hardware, and all the patented adjustment and locking tech that makes the original Tuffset Bridge a favorite among players worldwide — turning your long-scale Offset into a fully dialed-in, tuning-stable, vibrato-friendly machine.
