ABSTRACT:
A bridge device for a guitar or similar stringed instrument includes a base plate adapted to be fixed to the instrument and a plurality of individual bridge elements each engageable with a respective one of the strings. The bridge elements are supported from the base plate and are adjustable relative thereto in three different directions--that is, along the length of the associated string, crosswise of the associated string in a direction parallel to the base plate and crosswise of the associated string in a direction perpendicular to the base plate. The adjustment means are provided in such a way as to obtain the desired three-way adjustment capability with relatively simple and easily manipulated parts despite the space limitations imposed by the usual relatively small size of a bridge.
