Setup; Installing The Bridge - Yamaha Electric Violin EV-205 Owner's Manual

■ Installing the Bridge

• The lower side of the bridge supports the 1st string (E),
the higher side supports the 4th string (G). Make sure
the bridge is placed properly.
• Make sure that the tailpiece side of the bridge is stand-
ing vertically in relation to the violin's body. If the
bridge is leaning to one side, loosen the strings and
gently adjust the bridge with both hands. Also, make
sure that each string passes over its corresponding notch
in the bridge.
* Playing the violin with a bridge that leans may re-
sult in damage to the bridge or a deterioration in
sound quality.
