Pencil stopper


The prevailing reason- for us guitar owners dealing with a dual-action, locking whammy bridge- for not removing all strings from the bridge during a re-string exercise, is the bothersome collapse of the bridge into its cavity.When this happens, we cannot access the locking end of the bridge to free the strings from the clamps.

You can use a pencil or any other firm contraption to wedge it between the bridge & the cavity. Do lay a piece of cloth under the pencil to prevent it from denting the body surface.

in this situation, EDGE-type bridges was the winner :)

I wonder why no companies have thought of including a contraption like this together with the standard allen keys for their floyd equipped guitars...
