Ibanez SA series - help me bring my first guitar back to life.

The bridge saddles for strings 1 and 4 seem to be missing the little post in order to adjust the intonation, can I get replacements for this? Am I better off getting a bridge replacement for it?

Some of the frets are becoming unglued at the edges. I’ve never done fretwork before so I am somewhat nervous doing it, but there isn’t anyone near me to work on this guitar so the burden falls on me.

I have an Ibanez multi tool and access to a hardware store, and my goal is to get this done for as cheap as possible while still giving it a decent repair.

I plan on doing a few upgrades to it (pickups, locking tuners, possibly a bridge)

I’ve heard about 30 names for these things, poppers and mokes being common ones

It’s tobacco and weed in a bong, and I’m completely dependent on them. I cannot do anything or go to anywhere without them, and then doing them makes me forget about things and no show (family events, doctor appointments, car appointments, etc)

And when I don’t do them I am cranky to the point that I don’t even like myself, I’ll just resort to boredom eating and gaining 100 pounds (which id also like to avoid haha)

I’m sure there’s plenty I am failing to mention, so any questions are welcome and any advice is much appreciated
