What's Hot

Excuse the crap pic quality...

Can anyone recommend a bridge with longer saddle travel re. intonation adjustment?

    I'm assuming you need it longer in the forward direction, since you can get huge travel backwards by using the two large screws...

    If so I think the TonePros one does.

  • Is it definitely the saddle travel range that you require?

    The OP photograph appears to illustrate a bridge/tailpiece unit that is not ideally suited to the stud positions. 

    Schaller and BadAss spring to mind.

  • Schaller 455 or 456 might do it? @ICBM @Funkfingers ;

  • Is the OP photograph an actual guitar on which you are working or an image file that you borrowed just to illustrate your question?

    i think a schaller signum is one of the longest travels I've come across maybe 9mm from memory, I'm sure others will know more than me

    Probably insufficient travel, given the stud placement issue.

    Same goes for the Signum.

    If that cannot rescue the situation, nothing will.

    If you're really stuck and don't want to redrill and refinish it's not a massive engineering job to turn up some eccentric offset studs. 

    Getting absolutely dead on height adjustment will depend on the thread pitch though as you'll have to set them in a forward position, meaning that height adjustment will have to be by one whole turn.
