electronic tuner) and a Phillips tip screwdriver, turn the screws which adjust the claw, counterclockwise, until the strings return to pitch. This should raise your bridge and return the bridge to the proper balance point. JaguarlJazzmaster It is possible to vary the tension of the tremolo action by adjusting the tremolo spring tension screw. It should be kept in mind that the tension of the tremolo spring directly affects the pitch of the strings, and if you tighten this screw, the pitch of the strings will be raised. Should the tension be lessened, the pitch of the strings will be lowered. Either adjustment will in no way affect the playing action of the instrument, but will require retuning the strings to their original pitch. This feature affords the player any degree of tremolo action he prefers, which will be readily appreciated by every player. 5. Set Pickup Height The pickups on your Fender guitar are fully adjustable for height (Humbucking pickups also have individually adjustable pole pieces). Adjustments are made by turning the Pickup Adjustment Screws located at each end of the pickups. On Telecaster models the neck pickup can only be accessed by removing the pickguard. 14
