Hey guys,
I have been reading about bridge placement and i realized that people have different aproaches and techniques about bridge placement. Some uses the mount screw as refference or the front end of the bridge plate behind the scale lenght line, others get the saddle in its most forward position then back off a litte to align to the scale lengh line, some people use the middle of the adjustabilty range of the saddles to align it to the scale lenght line.
I'm designing a baritone guitar 26,5", What the most accurate hipshot placemente methode would you recomend? I'm not a builder, so i dont have a guitar body, neck and bridge in hands, just a laptop and a CAD software. I will use the hipshot bridge pdf as refference.
Do you guys think that substract 4mm of the scale length line and align the front of the bridge plate is fine?
There is difference between the placement of a regular guitar and a baritone, does the saddle need more or less room to intonate?
