Setting Up a Hipshot Supertone Bridge

Setup correct lateral spacing for strings

The first thing to do is to set the correct string spacing. For each string, loosen the 3rd (rearmost) allen bolt, then push the string saddle left or right into the position that puts it straight down the fretboard. Once happy with alignment, retighten the bolt to lock the lateral string position.

Setup correct height for E & G strings

Using the front allen bolts, set up the outermost strings to the lowest hight where they play clearly and do not buzz.

Setup correct radius for centre strings

Using the front allen bolts to adjust the saddle height, set up the centre strings to the correct radius with a radius guage, using the outermost strings as the reference.
