| Bass bridges and string spacing resource My first (and lost) bass had a narrow string spacing at the bridge.
I never could find another bass that "fit" my short stubby fingers so well.
I would like to compile a reference of bass bridge string spacing so I would not make the mistake of picking a bass with the "wrong" spacing. Or better yet, find some way to match the narrow spacing by picking a 5 string or 6 string model with similar string to string spacing.
For example, Fender standard (FSB) is approx. 2.25" overall dimension, and .75" string to string.
TABLE [metric, american]
Model : string to string; overall
FSB : 19mm = 3/4", (.750"); 2.25" overall
Any owners of vintage Teisco (1968 - 1972) basses, feel free to post those vital stats.
THANKS!!! |
