Members goodhonk Posted February 10, 2013 Members Share Posted February 10, 2013 New short VIbrola day i was a little hesitant drilling into my guitar, i'm a clutz when it comes to diy stuff. but i did it anyway. the wrap around bridge is one of those smooth ones, and it wouldn't stay in place when using the vibrola. i was gonna order a differnt bridge, but then read that you could wrap the low E string and use the rest of them on the vibrola. so i figured, why not wrap the both E's around the bridge to keep it in place. worked.

Members Hiwatt Bob Posted February 10, 2013 Members Share Posted February 10, 2013 very cool Honk!I would get the intonated bridge though--for intonation and so you can actually use the vibrola for all the strings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
