Re: New CA bridge installation: bridge angle?
My Eastman's stock bridge had bent posts creating a lean towards the fretboard. I'm grateful for the info I found on the Cafe, otherwise I never would have found out about Cumberland Acoustic bridges. When I bought one I bought their fitting jig too...and I must say, I'm not sure I would have done very well without it. I do recommend it. I had to make a slight adjustment to mine (increased the gap for the wheel adjustment screw) to get the angle I wanted, but it did the job fine. Took a lot of work but it was really rewarding. Steve Smith provided great instruction and support throughout the process too.
