Two alignment screws adjust the overall intonation. The height-adjustable mounting studs include knurled bushings. The strings load from the front of the die-cast base, wrap over the back of the bridge, and over the notched saddles. Drill 7/16" (11mm) holes for the bushings.

Tip: Slotting Tune-o-matic style saddles
Nut slotting files work great for metal saddles. Simply use the same techniques you'd use for nut slotting (read more in Making a Nut, Step-by-Step). After filing to the desired depth, we suggest polishing the slot with Mitchell's Abrasive Cord to remove file marks and burrs.


About bridge & tailpiece
measurements


String spread is the distance between the centers of the outer strings on a bridge or tailpiece.


Saddle radius determines the arc formed by all the individual saddle heights, and is similar to the measurement of a fretboard.


Stud/post spacing is the distance between the centers of the mounting posts of a bridge or 'stop' tailpiece.

Wraparound + tonepros

The more sustain, the less attack... this bridge makes your guitar sound like a neck thru . so it sounds like a firebird but not like a LP. Lots of sustain but no character or bit at all. Maybe better for semi-jazz guitar style but not for rock.
maybe the light weight model...

Wrap around success

I was looking to replace the bridge on a 1979 Aria Pro II as the saddles were so heavily corroded that they were interfering with the intonation and lateral string stability on the instrument. (The guitar is a unique prototype of Aria’s Heel-less neck concept) The Wrap around Bridge looked to be a good option. Replacement was not straightforward. The threads on the new mounting posts were not a match for the sockets in the instrument. The new bridge was 1mm thicker than the old bridge. All other dimensions of the new bridge were comparable to the old one. I did not want to remove the existing sockets for fear of damaging the guitar. I decided to shave 1mm from the underside of the new bridge to fit the existing mounting posts.
The result is very pleasing. The new bridge looks great and has fixed the intonation and stability problem.

Very good

This is a very good bridge. From the look point of view I personally prefer the wilkinson bridge but the problem is that it's precompensated and you cannot set the saddles. This is completely adjustable. Pay attention to the height of this unit
