  1. Hello I wanted to chime in and give my 2 cents about the Evertune bridge. First off I think it's a brilliant bridge because it lets you play gigs without looking at a tuner between songs. You can be engaging with the audience at all times. It also is a huge pleasure to record with. Just grab it, and record. You dont need to look at tuner before starting, but more importantly, you dont have to look at tuner between every take. Now I'm good at making my "regular bridge guitars" (hartails and Floyd Roses) to stay well in tune, but I still look at tuner all the time when recording because if it's just 1 cent off I have to adjust it. I have installed Evertune on one of my guitars myself. It's definitely not something you do if you dont know what you're doing but I've installed Floyd Roses on guitars and this is actually easier than Floyd installs. You dont have to be super precise with stud locations etc, just make sure the bridge sits where should and you're ready to go. Here's a comparison video of my guitar before and after I installed the Evertune. Difference in tone? Nothing to honestly care about. It's so small you can barely hear it. You will only hear it if you want to. Difference in sustain? Absolutely. It loses sustain. NOT BECAUSE OF WOOD REMOVAL. That's a common misconception. The saddles have basically no contact with anything so thats the reason. It's the actual bridge design. But I'm totally cool with it. It lets me play and record for hours without having to tune. How often do you really need to have a note hanging on for more than 2-3 seconds? Thats the higher notes too, I'm talking about. The lower notes are definitely OK. But it's not going to have the sustain of a Floyd Rose or hardtail because that's just how it is. I've tried several Evertune guitars, both retrofitted, factory installed and custom made. They all have worse sustain than regular bridges. But the tuning stability is worth it.
