    Hi

    Hi
    Ive been playing guitar for about two yeras. I have an Ibanez and Epiphone electrics and have just bought an ST12 kit. The problem is the hole in the bullets is not large enough to take the E, A and D pairs of strings. Any advice greatly appreciated
    Cheers
    Clare

    Hi.

    You're not supposed to put both sets of strings through the rear ferrules. One set of six goes through the ferrules, the other goes through the holes in the rear of the bridge. I haven't made one or seen a kit, so have a look at the way the holes line up and that should tell you whether the standard or octave strings go through the rear holes. You won't want them crossed over.
