ABSTRACT:
Devices for supporting guitar strings at the bridge and nut ends of the keyboard include a body portion with an axially vertical threaded bore that houses a screw element. A slot is provided in the body so that the string rests and is supported on the upper surface of the element. The element has a surface recess adapted for reception of a tool used to raise and lower the element in the bore and to thus raise and lower the support for the string. The recess is preferably surrounded by a flat uninterrupted surface to provide a string supporting surface at all rotative positions. If movement of the support longitudinally of the string is desired, a screw member mounted on a bracket and engaging the body portion within a threaded bore below the screw element may be used.
