Abstract

See full text

Described herein is an adjustable bridge unit for use with a stringed instrument, such as an electric guitar. The construction of the unit allows for an unimpeded string path from the rear of an adjustable height bridge in a downward trajectory toward a tailpiece. Moreover, the bridge unit may be used to convert a pivot style bridge system to a fixed bridge system, as well as to perform a variety of corrective measures, such as post placement, intonation, and string alignment, which may be required given discrepancies in manufacturing tolerances of the stringed instrument.
