Hi Terry, Wrap twice around hitch pin, and 4 times around active length just in front of hitch pin. Termination length drops to about 7-8mm instead of 40-50mm. This makes a huge difference to the stiffness applied to the bridge. Leaves it free to move. If you only have about 20mm of active back scale length, then the termination has a serious negative effect on the bridge. It would be interesting to have Del move a bridge and use German loops, I think the results would be dramatic.
