STRING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT (See photo "A") The Fender bridge bars employed on this bass are designed to provide the player with any desired string height. To raise the individual string, turn the two set-screws clockwise. To lower the string or strings, turn the screws counterclockwise. With these bridge units, extremely low playing action can be achieved facilitating fast playing action and ease of playing. STRING LENGTH ADJUSTMENT (See photo "A") An extremely important feature of any fretted instrument is the ability to achieve accurate string intonation so that notes are in tune throughout the frets. You will note that each bridge bar is held in place by the longitudinal screws which are used to vary their position (string length). PHOTO "A"
