Example Wrap-Around Bridge Application
TonePros Bridges can be installed by our repair shop or you can install your own. Here's a sample of a wrap-around bridge installation.
Before starting the installation, first measure the height of your existing wraparound bridge as installed. Measure the distance between the guitar body & the top surface of the bottom flange of each stud that holds your bridge. This will save lots of needless height adjustment! Now remove strings being careful to hold the bridge while removing the last string. No crashes on the top please! Luckily, you will soon never have to worry about that again! Remove old studs. Now, dial in new locking stud bottoms, use your measurements to set height as before, as close as possible. |
Adjusting bridge height |
Now "dial" your new stud tops on lightly, hold your wrap-around bridge in place, and dial down the tops until they contact the top of the bridge, IMPORTANT ... do not tighten stud tops yet! Go ahead and restring your guitar, the tops of your studs should be contacting your bridge without any "leaning" yet be loose enough to allow you to adjust your intonation. Use the open end of your TonePros® wrench (12mm) to make any action or height adjustments. |
Once completed, adjust intonation. When intonation adjustment is completed, use the handle of the TonePros® wrench sideways in the groove of the stud top to tighten, this should prevent any "screw driver marks" in the stud top. Firmly & smoothly tighten stud top being careful not to "over tighten". |
TonePros® components are well constructed and will seat firmly and nicely, you will feel when it is tight & secure. WE ARE ALMOST DONE... this next step is important, now detune all of your strings so that there is no pitch present and give your stud tops a little extra snug tighten (this assures that the bridge is seated properly and removes any residual "lean"), now do your final intonation check/adjustment. That's it!! You are done, and it is set and will stay that way, strings or no strings!! Better contact, better transfer, better coupling, enjoy! |
