I changed the stings on my beloved X170T, and now it's all buzzy and doesn't feel right. I've changed the stings before without incident.
This time however, the bridge came off, which it hadn't done before. I was under the impression that it was pinned, but I'm not so sure now. It looks like it may have been glued? Here's a pic:
It looks and feels like there's some "goop" where the ends of the bridge go. It's hard on the body.
My archtop experience is very limited, having cut my teeth on electrics in the 70s and pointy guitars in the 80s. Was this a pinned bridge and I broke the pins? Was it just glued? Am I just an idiot? Will it ever stop snowing? Can you help me?
