The loop does stand the string eleva= tion  a bit higher off the plate & this needs to be taken into considera= tion especially when setting up a new bridge height. With an old bridge your stuc= k with what you got unless you drop the plate a mm or so to accommodate the ch= ange before restringing.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=3>   Dale Erwin</FONT></DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: blue 2px solid"><= FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" face=Arial color=#000000 size= =2><BR>I suppose tho that  since the loop (being thicker) will force the strin= g <BR>to come off the hitch pins a bit higher then otherwise.
