Post subject: | Bridge Placement on Nylon Crossover. (math involved) |
Hi everyone, I recently finished the neck and box on a nylon crossover and I am struggling as to where to place the bridge. I based the construction on a 1 7/8" , 25.4 scale neck, 14 fret, Martin 000 body. The soundboard is latticed braced and the rest is pretty similar to the standard Martin body. I generally use a Stew-mac saddlematic, however, the classical bridge I am using has a straight saddle slot not a compensated one. Should I remove the pins totally and measure without them or is there a distance they should be set at for nylon strings?? Any idea's would be great! Thanks |

I believe the stew Mac fret calculator will be your friend here. If I'm not mistaken, it will give you actual string length for nylon strings... |
