Bass Bridges
The B100, B105 and B106 bass bridges were
designed for easy string change. The strings
are installed by hooking the ball end into the
string catch at the rear of the bridge. The
intonation can be adjusted by moving the
saddle forward or backward using a Phillips
head (+) screwdriver on the adjustment
screw at the rear of the bridge. String height
is controlled by using a 1.5mm Allen wrench to raise or lower the Allen screws on
either side of the saddle.
To replace strings, thread the new strings
through the string holes located on the back of
the tailpiece and bring them up and over the
saddle. The intonation can be adjusted by
moving the saddle forward or backward using
a Phillips head (+) screwdriver on the
adjustment screw at the rear of the bridge. String height is controlled by using a
1.5mm Allen wrench to raise or lower the Allen screws on either side of the saddle.

REPLACING THE STRINGS
2
The Accu-Cast B200 and B205 bass bridges
allow two styles of string installation. The
strings are installed by lowering the ball end
into the bridge and hooking the ball end

below the string catch at the rear of the
(FIGURE 2 )
bridge. (Figure 1)

In this method, the strings are installed by
lowering the ball end into the bridge and
2
holing the string catch directly below the
saddle. This increases string tension and
adds sustain. (Figure 2)
STRING HEIGHT
To raise or lower the string action, insert the
correct Allen wrench into the screw (A) at the
saddle. To raise the saddle turn the wrench
clockwise and to lower the saddle turn the
wrench counter clockwise.
INTONATION
Intonation adjustment can be made by adjusting the intonation screws (B) at the
rear of the bridge clockwise to move the saddle back and counter clockwise to
move the saddle forward.
(A)
The Accu-Cast bass bridge was designed for
easy string change, durability, and accurate
string height adjustment. To raise or lower
the string action, insert the correct Allen
wrench into the screw at the saddle (A). To
raise the saddle turn the wrench clockwise and to lower the saddle turn the
wrench counter clockwise. Intonation adjustments can be made by adjusting the
intonation screws at the rear of the bridge clockwise to move saddle back and
counter clockwise to move the saddle forward.
For slightly more sustain, strings can be
installed either from the back of the
instrument through the string grommets.
*Note: When replacing string check with the dealer to make
sure the new strings are long enough for the full scale length
of the bass.
The strings are installed by lowering the ball end
into the bridge and hooking the ball end below the
string catch at the rear of the bridge. To raise or
lower the string action, insert the correct Allen
wrench into the screw at the saddle (A). To raise the
saddle turn the wrench clockwise and to lower the
saddle turn the wrench counter clockwise.
Intonation adjustments can be made by adjusting
the intonation screws (B) at the rear of the bridge
clockwise to move saddle back and counter
clockwise to move the saddle forward.
Mono-Rail II bridge allows the bass
strings to be isolated for one another by
using independent bridge plates for each
string. The strings are installed by
lowering the ball end into the bridge and
holing the ball end below the string catch
at the rear of the bridge. Intonation
adjustments can be made by adjusting
the intonation screws at the rear of the
bridge clockwise to move saddle back
and counter clockwise to move the saddle forward.
EB10 5string bridge was designed for easy
string change. The strings are installed by
(A)
holing the ball end into the string catch at the
rear of the bridge. The intonation can be
adjusted by moving the saddle forward or
(B)
backward using a Phillips heads(+)
screwdriver on the adjustment screw at the
rear of the bridge. String height is controlled
by using a 2.0mm Allen wrench to raise or
lower the Allen screws on either side of the saddle.
To replace strings, thread the new strings through
the string holes located on the back of the tailpiece
and bring them up and over the saddle. The
intonation can be adjusted by moving the saddle
forward or backward using a Phillips head (+)
screwdriver on the adjustment screw at the rear of
the bridge.
Staring height is controlled by using a wrench to
raise or lower the small Allen screws on either side of the saddle.

All 2 pickups models : Pickup Balancer
The pickup balance control pot allows the user to blend
between the front and back pickups using a single pot. The
center position of the pot has a de-tent which will set both
pickups to equal output. Turning the knob clockwise increases the neck pickup
while decreasing the output of the bridge pickup. Turning the knob counter
clockwise decreases the neck pickup and increases the output of the bridge
pickup.
