360 12 Bridge ?

[larsongs]

Do the new 360 12 string Guitars have a Floating Bridge? Do those screws at either end of the Bridge screw into the Bridge or are they floating?

Thanks,

Glenn

Floating.

Anything I should know before changing Strings?

What I have read is that it will take you at least a case of beer (or two) to get the restringing done right. Do a search, there are several threads on how to restring a 12er.

I like to restring one string at a time rather than remove all the strings at once before proceeding. This keeps the whole tailpiece/bridge configuration in place and keeps even tension on the neck, too. Of course, this method can impair a good cleaning effort if that is your habit when changing strings.

What...? You mean you're meant to clean guitars?

Yeah, like this, Evan!


if you left the strings on the guitar, though, they will probably rust so it is best to remove all of them first.

So how often do you change strings?

I have had two 12 string Ricks in the past; I have to say (really, truly) I sold them before I had to change their strings.

My 660/12 is still wearing the strings it came with in 2007 but I only play 12-string every now and then...
