12 saddle bridge

Post by Janglyman »

I've swapped out the bridge on my 360-12 and one thing has always bothered me. From the looks of the bridge, it looks like it mounts with the adjusting screws closest to the bridge pickup. This makes it difficult to adjust intonation because an allen wrench won't fit in.

So the question is, do the adjusting screws face toward the brige pickup or face toward the big R tailpiece?

You will be pleased to know I put the darn thing on bass-ackwards. Oh well, it was time to restring it anyway. This is what makes the 450-12 clunky one-piece bridge so good. It's idiot (Russell) proof.

Thanks buddy.

P.S. That's a really nice guitar you got there.
