I have recently traded my Gibson Garry Moore/Les Paul signature guitar for a blond 1996 Guild starfire III. The sound and the feel of the starfire is just perfect for me and I can see myself playing this one for the rest of my life. I love it.
There is only one problem. Even though I don’t use a pick I have a a right hand style that can be quite heavy. The bridge is only held in place by the pressure of the strings and is tends to shift up and down and horizontal. It hasn’t made too many scratches yet so I can see where it’s supposed to be and push it back. But in the long run it’s going to cause permanent damage.
I can’t imagine I’m the only one to have run into this problem, so I hope there’s anybody here who knows a remedy for it.
Is there a way to secure the bridge in place?
