    One thing I did notice was that after I had set the intonation for each string after fitting the new Tone Pros bridge, all the saddles ended up in positions different to the old Nashville bridge, the saddles on the Tone Pros bridge were more or less where I was expecting them to be for good intonation, on the old Nashville bridge the A string saddle would end up slightly in front of the D string saddle, but on the Tone Pros I got the typical pattern, I'll post a pic so you can see where the saddles on The Tone bridge ended up, note that the intonation for each string was set near enough to spot on as I could get them.

    That looks more like what I would expect.


    I also adjusted the height of the tailpiece so that both the E strings were clear of the back edge of the bridge.
