Oh yeah, if you find one of the 380 PZ bridge/saddles/preamp snatch it up, you probably wont find another any time soon. JH already said they wont be available through RIC back when they dissed the 380...

you dont need to have 2 jacks for the option of stereo or mono. Get a smartjack and you can have both. stick a mono plug in and the stero shank is shorted out routing both signals through the mono cord. Put a stereo cord in and you get 1 signal per channel. I used to have one on my Dakota for the pi...

well a quick Google and it appears that pure zinc's annealing temp is below rm temp. ~50 degrees F. Theoretically this means it cant be strain hardened (assuming its reasonably close to pure) and that you have nothing to worry about.
