Standard Bass Bridge Instructions
To Tune
Turn knobs at rear of bridge clockwise to tighten, counterclockwise to loosen.
To Change Strings
Turn the tuning knobs counterclockwise until the ball-end of the string is fully visible. Remove the ball end from the jaw, and the other end of the string will slip easily from the headpiece.
Install new strings by putting the small ball-end into the headpiece. then drop the large ball into the jaw at the bridge. Tighten the tuner until the correct pitch is achieved. Stretch the string and re-tune
To Use Conventional Strings
A string adapter is required:
Put ball-end in bridge, and thread the other string end through the headpiece and string adapter holes. Firmly tighten the set screws in string adapter to clamp the strings. Cut away excess strings flat against the adapter so that no sharp edges remain.
To Adjust Action
Loosen set screw on side of bridge, adjust set screw in top of saddle up or down to desired action height. Tighten set screw on side of bridge to lock saddles in place.
To Adjust Intonation
Loosen set screw on side of bridge. Turn set screw in front of saddle to adjust backward toward tuner if intonation is sharp at 24th fret; forward (toward head) if intonation is flat at the 24th fret. Tighten set screw on side of bridge to lock.
