Good product for what it is
I use this product on my Fender Player Strat and it is a drop in replacement.
The product itself is crafted well and delivers what it promises. I made a mistake in building up this product after reading all the raging reviews.
Is it a good product? Yes it is. The saddles are crafted well and they look good, but most of all they feel very, very comfortable.
Will it transform your guitar tonally? Not so much. Yes there might be some subtle changes but be aware that we are talking about nuances. I think my ears are average and yours might be too, so don't expect a huge difference.
Pro: Great product that delivers on its promise and looks good.
Con: It's easy to get carried away by raging reviews. While it has nothing to do with the product as such, it can cause dissapointment considering the price.
I recommend this product to players who are looking for more comfort or have saddles which cause discomfort and to players looking for aesthetic upgrade.

Fits MIM strat bridge
I've never been a fan of the Fender bent bridge saddles, the screws are uncomfortable when palm muting and they have little in the way of a groove for the string. I was concerned that the Highwood saddles would be too wide for my MIM strat (ca 2010), but they were a perfect drop in fit and easy to install and intonate.
They are more comfortable than the Fender originals, but still not as comfortable as block saddles (like the one on the PRS Custom 24), but a worthy upgrade if you like the vintage look and are annoyed by the standard height adjustment screws. I could not detect any change in tone or sustain but they are a step up in comfort levels, so 4 stars.
