Were the wrapped strings on the treble bridge "tubby" or just the ones on the bass bridge? I've seen bass bridges loose (too little glue from the factory) but if the wrapped strings on the treble bridge are "tubby" that's probably not it. The last one I did like that I loosened the tension on the bass strings and as I was removing the strings from the hitch pins the bass bridge fell off. dave *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 3/2/02 at 11:34 AM JSmith3109@AOL.COM wrote: >Serviced at Baldwin Hamilton (1960ish) today.
