GIBRALTAR CUSTOM BRIDGE
(for a guitar with 6/7 strings)
The Gibraltar custom bridge is designed to enable efficient transfer of string vibration to
the body by securing the bridge body onto the sustain block embedded in the body.
Adjusting the action
Loosen the bolts (Fig. 1 A) on the right and left ends of the bridge unit for fixing the
bridge, and adjust the height of the bridge unit by turning the four height adjustment
screws (Fig. 1 B) on the upper section of the bridge with a 2 mm Allen wrench. Note that
it is not possible to adjust the height of individual strings. After completing adjustment,
tighten the bolts for fixing the bridge.
Adjusting the intonation
Loosen the saddle lock screws (Fig.1 C) with a 2 mm Allen wrench, then turn the intona-
tion adjustment screw (Fig.1 D) with a 2 mm Allen wrench to adjust the saddle position.
Tune the guitar and check the intonation. Repeat these adjustments until the required
intonation is reached, and then tighten the saddle lock screws.
Caution
When adjusting the intonation, be sure to fully loosen the saddle lock bolts
beforehand using a 2 mm Allen wrench. Otherwise, damage may occur.
Replacing the strings
Install strings by threading them from the back of the guitar body through the string an-
choring ferrules. After making some string wraps, check that the string rests in the slot
at the center of the saddle.
