spring think bling bling

[David Love]

Not really.  Since the strings already sits at the bottom of the rut, you're
not really decreasing the bearing by shaving the bridge down to that point.
You will need to renotch, of course.

But if you shave the "ruts" out you'd also lose some of the downbearing.
Capisce?

Hi Ric,
I am guessing that the string does not have a clear termination point due to
its riding in the valley of the rut or groove. As it sings the termination
is sometimes on the side of the pin and again on the valley of the groove.
Never together as it should be.
How is the bearing? Enough to de-pin and shave the ruts out? Then re-pin?
