Part 3 - Electric Guitar Bridge Installation

Part 3 - This is the third video in the series show you how to install a two-piece stoptail bridge on your home-built electric guitar kit (check out the Parts 1 & 2 first!). If you're like us, you want your guitar project to be perfect. Installing the bridge is something that can seem intimidating, but is something that you can do if you take your time and follow along with Paul as he shows how to install and get perfect intonation every time. You can install a bridge with a modest number of tools. In the video, we recommend a drill press for one operation, but if you're careful and have someone that can help you, it can be accomplished with a hand drill.

We've had some folks ask about the bridge we are installing, and the kit we are installing it on. The kit is a PVX Double Cutaway and the bridge is a TonePros T3BP Locking Nashville-Style Bridge and T1ZS Matching Locking Stop Bar Tailpiece. The techniques in the video will work with pretty much any kit and 2-piece bridge.

In this third video, Paul shows how to align the bridge and make sure that you have perfect intonation before doing any drilling for the bridge piece.  After finding the position, you get step-by-step instructions on marking, drilling and fitting the bridge.
