NGD/NBridgeD: The Evertune is life changing

[Virtual Kevorkian]

Bought this back in late June and dropped it off at a tech a couple weeks after. Started as:

Picked it up today, absolutely floored.

The Evertune is insane. You just cannot put it out of tune, and the guitar just absolutely sings as a result. Everything sounds perfect, totally lives up to hype. Can't wait to get it on a 6 string.

I had never fully considered the potential of these till now. Fascinating.

What happens when you do a bend?

It is a mechanical device??
Not one of those stupid robot thingies....
Looks good!

You can set it up where you can bend like you normally would or you can set it up that bending a string doesn't change the pitch at all.

Cool; quite like the white one.

Just curious, if you don't mind saying, how much does it cost to install one of those?

I've thought about one of those on my ESP Eclipse, but I like the classic look of the TOM bridge too much.

I wonder how long until they come out with a tremolo version.

The most interesting thing about the Evertune is that you have continuous control between standard vibrato function and totally locking the string down, which means I can give it as much or as little breathing room as I like. I thought this was an on/off (vibrato or locked) function before, but its actually a sliding scale. SUPER convenient; allows me to still bend/vibrato on the low string but have it always be perfectly in tune regardless of how hard I pick (which is really, really hard.)

Mechanical, each string linked to its own spring. Amazing.

I PM'd you, but installs generally run about $250-400 depending on the tech and how easy the guitar is to install on. Some guitars require plugging existing routes (TOM, string-thru top, tremolos) a bit, some are a direct retrofit. Bridges are $300 for 6 string, $350 for 7 string. Warmoth was doing routes for the bridges for an extra $45 at one point; not sure if they're still doing that or not.

They make one that actually sits on the stop tailpiece's posts!

They really need to make a bass and tremolo version; they're both in R/D as far as I know, but the company is relatively small.
