A small, shallow cavity is created under the neckplate for the plate-mounted mechanism. This does not affect the body strength or sound.
The Bender Arm is free of screws and has no slack or wobble. The arm moves very smoothly and the destination pitch is fine-tuned with the thumbscrew shown.
The integrated neckplate and mechanism create great stability. The built-in bearings provide the smoothest feel, all in a very lightweight unit.
There is a small non-invasive rout under the bridge plate. This allows the Bender to be moved between a B-pull or G-pull, per preference.
Here's a traditional Bridge with the Bender Saddle - a 'B' Finger and an original style non-bending hi e' barrel portion. This saddle can be flipped to G and automatically intonate.
Here's a traditional Bridge with the Bender Saddle - a 'G' Finger and an original style non-bending D' barrel portion. This saddle can be flipped to B and automatically intonate.
The Bender, installed, is non-invasive and retains the original look and sound.
A 1/2" hole runs from the body end, under the bridge to the neckplate area.
A phillips-head screw allows individual preference of Bender tension, easily adjustable for a soft touch or for aggressive high-activity use.
The butt end strap attachment is not affected by the Bender and does not impede tension screw access.
