Setting up your guitar

Replacing the strings

The bridge on your Giulietta archtop guitar is not fastened to the guitar top, but is set in the
correct position at the factory and held in place by string tension. When restringing, don't
remove all the strings at once. Changing one string at a time will allow the bridge to remain in
the correct position. The initial bridge position is as shown in the drawing.
If bridge has been moved, don't try to return it to the correct position under full string tension
since this may affect the performance of the piezo saddle. If you need to verify the location, ei-
ther after an accidental change to the bridge position or after installing a different type or gauge
of strings, check the intonation of the E strings and adjust as needed (loosening the strings
before moving the bridge) so that the fretted notes and harmonics at the 12th fret match.
If you are uncomfortable with this kind of adjustment, consult a qualified guitar repair person.
