string Installation 

After loosening topnut screws (at headstock), use tuning 

machines to remove string tension. Loosen string lock bolts 

at bridge approximately three turns using the 3mm hex 

wrench. Insert string end through tuning machines and 

locking topnut. Cut off excess string length approximately 

one inch past string of lock bolts. Insert string end into 

bridge saddle (between saddle housing and lock block) 

and tighten until snug. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Adjust fine 

tuning knobs to middle position. stretch strings and tune 

to pitch. Tighten locking topnut, stretch string once more 

and fine-tune to pitch. 

Tremolo Bridge Height

Bridge height may be adjusted by means of the bridge 

pivot bolts. Turn the pivot bolts clockwise to reduce bridge 

height. Turn the pivot bolts counterclockwise to increase 

bridge height.

Tremolo Bridge Tension

The tension of the tremolo bridge is set by adjusting the 

spring tension screws which hold the spring claw in place. 

To gain access to the spring tension screws and spring 

claw, remove the spring cover on the back of the guitar.
The instrument is equipped with two springs, which allow 

proper tension for the string gauge supplied with the guitar. 

The extra spring is enclosed should you prefer to use a heavi-

er string gauge.
Proper tremolo tension is achieved when the bottom of the 

tremolo bridge plate rests on the top surface of the guitar 

body without requiring excessive force to depress the 

tremolo arm.
The tremolo can be adjusted to operate as a floating style 

tremolo by loosening the spring tension. Turn the spring 

tension screws clockwise to increase the spring tension, 

and counterclockwise to decrease the spring tension.
This instrument should be tuned to proper pitch (A-440) 

before and after making adjustments.
