How a Guitar Bridge Can Change the Feel and Response of Your Instrument
Some hardware choices seem trivial until you actually play the instrument for a week and see what keeps bugging you. The bridge is in one of the most important contact zones, so even a small change there can alter the comfort, the attack, the sustain and the tuning feel in ways that players notice pretty fast. A Guitar Bridge does more than hold strings in place. It makes a difference in the way energy enters the body and the way the hands respond to bends, palm muting and heavier rhythm work. In this article, we discuss why that section is so important and why players often feel the difference before they can articulate it.
