my bridge

Sign in to disble this ad
I know how to adjust the bridge and everything, but i'm curious. After adjusting my action/intonation several times today (trying to get it right) I finally have. however, my bridge saddles arent ascending like they would normally, take a look:

NOTE: I'm a lefty



is there anything wrong/dangerous about this? or is it just the way it is. I'm using RS66s (long scale for some reason) on a MIM Jazz

For a lefty, it looks about right (sorry, that was too easy!). So what if your D string turns out to want to be shorter than the others; the bass plays well and intonates well, so you're good. Nothing dangerous about it at all.
