Left hand 360 12 string saddle

Post by simondohertyuk »

Hi, I'm wanting to know if I'll face any problems if I get a 12 saddle for my 12 string 360?
Are the saddles the same for left and right handed Ricks?
cheers

If you buy the 12 saddle bridge, the individual saddles are Un notched for the strings, so you can get it filed to use on lefty or righty guitars.

Here's a tip from Dan Erlewine on notching your saddles:
- String up the guitar with an old set of strings.
- Position the strings where you want them on the saddle.
- Hit them with a plastic hammer.

The strings will leave a dent which you can then use as is or as the starting point for a filing operation.
You want to put that where?
