Hello everyone, been a while since I posted, hope everyone’s doing good though. Especially with how the past year has gone.
Anyhow, I have a question for those of you who have experienced this issue. The bridge on my Eastwood Jerry Garcia Wolf Tribute has a bit of a rattle on the D and B. It does not translate through my 65’ Fender Deluxe reissue, but I have overdriven OCC, and would like to stop it regardless.
I have read about several ways to clear this up. Those “mods” being, putting springs on the saddle adjustment screws, setting the intonation and putting a tiny dab of clear fingernail polish at every spot the adjustment screw touches both the saddle and the bride itself, using wax on the adjustment screw, and finally (the most complex imho)
I tried the springs, and it worked for a week, then it slowly came back on both. I was going to try the nail polish, but thought I’d get one input from others with either more experience or direct experience with a similar issue, and how you solved it.
you can see in the image the type of retaining clip being used (which has been one of the reasons I think the rattle exists, I may be wrong)
Any help would be appreciated,
Chris
