Thread Name: Where do you put a moveable bridge?
Subject: Where do you put a moveable bridge?
What is the proper placement of a moveable bridge? It seemed logical to me that it should be set at a distance from the nut that would be twice as far as the length from nut to 12th fret, but that's not working for me. What am I missing here?
I'm trying to set this bridge on a Johnson MA-550 octave mandolin. I also have an old Kalamazoo KG-21 guitar (originally my father's) with a moveable bridge, so any info you can provide would be helpful twice over! Thanks in advance!
