I don't know, Gounaro. What is the benefit or added value? I have always tied the strings on the tie-block the old-fashioned, tried and true way and never had a problem. How is this way better?

Cheers,

Bill

Just not to harm the bridge Bill.

Good grief.
On a guitar with a low saddle you wouldn't have any break angle left but you would be able to keep your bridge all nice and pretty. [8|]

I'm picturing it now[:D]

Caracafe asks the owner of the guitar with the bridge tie block protector if he can borrow the guitar. Singer starts and Caracafe strums the first chord at 0:16. So far so good although the guitar owner is in a state of panic. At 0:18 Caracafe taps the side. Owner moves around to inspect for damage. At 0:40 owner hears and witnesses big strum and golpe, panic is really setting in, He is sweating and feeling anxious. Ot 1:06 the owner decides he has had enough and takes the guitar and puts it back in the case and goes home. The cool Remate at 1:15 never happens. [:D]

Are you saying you play without protection?!



xirdneH_imiJ -> RE: Is this a nice idea? (Sep. 28 2011 10:21:40)

i actually have two dents just under the bridge due to string breaks, maybe this couldve prevented those, but an even better idea is what Ramzi showed me the other day, a small piece of golpeador placed there, it's more discrete and probably cheaper too...



erictjie -> RE: Is this a good idea? (Sep. 28 2011 10:26:13)

honestly , they look ugly . i did buy from stringsbymail the bone set, although they make setup easier and faster but they look ugly , so i gave up using them.

You could use heat shrink cable sleeves over the strings, if you wanted this, and dirt cheap.
