Guitar Bridge 101: Types of Guitar Bridge Parts & Their Use

 

The first step is to figure out which bridge you already have on your guitar and what you want to accomplish with the upgrade. The first step in figuring out what you have is to consider which brand you want to replace it with. Gibson, Epiphone, and other imported guitars (Tokai, Ibanez, Burny, and so on) have somewhat different bridge measurements, requiring slightly different parts. All of these can be found at Guitar Parts as suitable replacements. Read the following guide to each component and discover what matches your instrument before settling on a bridge.

Studs for Conversion Bridges

You can use one of our conversion bridge studs to convert your import model to match a USA-style bridge (such as our ABRM or Tone-Lock bridge). These studs are simple to install and, in the case of the ESWKIT, require no changes to your current setup. The E-Sert installation instructions are in video format on the FaberUSA.com website’s “Help” section.

• Faber ESWKIT – This guitar bridge stud set will fit into your existing import guitar bushings, allowing you to utilise one of our USA-style bridges without having to modify your body. It’s a straightforward “remove and replace” solution.”

• Faber E-Sert – The E-Sert range removes the tone-robbing non-steel bushings that come standard on most import guitars. You can also use our ABR and Tone-Lock model bridges with these bridge mounting posts. One pair of steel studs and a thumbwheel for action adjustment are included with the E-Sert studs. The posts that are attached to the bushings will transfer the most vibrations into the instrument and boost the guitar’s sustain.

Suppose your guitar has a one-piece wraparound bridge. In that case, Faber guitar parts also provide a tailpiece with compensated edges to aid with intonation, as well as our Wraptonate tailpiece, which is a fully inntonatable wraparound bridge.

Skateboarding and Longboarding on and Around Campus

Even though alternative transportation is rampant on Whitman’s small campus, only a handful of Whitman students skateboard. Whether longboarding to class or skating for leisure, those who own boards on campus represent a small fraction of the student body. Whitman’s campus isn’t exactly ideal for the sport. For skateboarding you mainly just need an open, rarely frequented area with various obstacles and terrain. If there is a skatepark nearby, obviously that is a large draw, but for Whitman students, the nearest park is in College Place. On campus, skaters use the small area outside of Olin Hall or can be seen behind North Hall practicing tricks. As for longboarding, all one really needs is a hilly area that is hopefully nicely paved, ideally with not much traffic.  In Walla Walla, serious elevation change is something of a rarity, so most long boarders on campus mainly direct their hobby toward getting to class. However, there are students who do manage to find places off ca...

B12 Benefits While Pregnant

If you are pregnant, or trying to conceive, you know that taking folic acid is essential for the healthy development of your baby. But according to the World Health Organization, vitamin B12 is just as important in preventing neural tube and other neurological defects in infants and unfortunately as many as 1 in 20 adults is deficient in this essential vitamin. Vitamin B12 is important because "it helps keep the body's nerve and blood cells healthy and helps make DNA, the genetic material in all cells," explains Peter Shaw, M.D., chief medical officer of pharmaceutical company Emisphere, which manufactures B12 supplements. "A deficiency is associated with increased risk for several adverse pregnancy outcomes for both mother and fetus. These risks include neural tube defects, intrauterine growth retardation, preeclampsia and early miscarriage," he says. Even more frighteningly, the neurological and developmental delays in babies that can be caused by ...
