Your video was fantastic. You are a credit to the music industry. I have never in my 57 years on this planet had anyone teach like you do. Outstanding work. You preempt exactly what my next question was going to be with a expert answer. Exemplary camera work also.

This guy is really good at explaining clearly and accurately. Just the right amounbt of detail. Brilliant.

MUST REMARK ALSO, THAT THE CLOSE-UP SHOTS ARE WORTH THEIR WEIGHT IN GOLD.......At my age I need all the help I can get......Merry Xmas, Howard, H6UK

Finally got my Epiphone E339 sounding just as I have always wanted! Thank you so much! It may have been in 2018 when you did this but we are still benefiting from your skill and ease of getting across the message that so many others have not!I could not agree more with the last post as to you being a credit to the industry! I sincerely hope you achieve everything you aim for..Dave

The part of video explaining to not allow the strings to touch the back end of the bridge was really useful to know. Cheers

You are a shining example of why I love this new whole new universe that includes KZfaq. I’m mostly a bass player guy, but I now understand more about the Gibson Bridge/Tailpiece relationship than I ever have in the last 40 years of causually wondering! Thanks you! (Sincerely, I’m not joking.)

I am building a DIY Les Paul style kit. This video sure helps explain a lot for me to use to set up my kit. Great explanation about the bridge. I thought at first you had 3 saddles backward, but you made sense of it. Now I need to check my bridge to see if the saddles are facing the same way. Thank you for this video and now, on to the full set up. Have a great day.

Amazingly clear description on how all this works. You thought of every question that could be asked about this topic. It could NOT have been explained any more clearly. THANKS!

That is the best and most accurate representation of the mechanical nuances of a tune-o-matic Nashville styled bridge. The close ups and time spent discussing the bridge and tail piece, as well as some of the alternate choices, is very thorough and leads well into the setup and intonation of this system. Fantastic.

You explain things a lot of people ignore. Well done. Your a good teacher. 😊

Thanks very much. I’m 56 and been playing since I was 13 and I never knew about avoiding your strings touching the back of the bridge. Totally transformed the playability and consistency. Great video, plain English, well explained thanks again

To say I’m impressed with your presentation (probably entirety of your channel) would be a massive understatement. I’m seriously just blown away with how perfectly articulated/demonstrated this video is. Wow. Instant sub, like, comment, etc..all that good shit. Bravo, good sir. Absolutely stellar.

Perfectly explained! It’s my first time with an Epiphone SG and this helped a ton. Thank you!

Best video of it's kind I've seen. So well explained, and filmed so you can really see what's going on.

awesome, you did the right thing by explaining so extensively. You show many angles, functions, details. Awesome, best tutorial of this issue.

I have never in my 66 years on this planet commented on any video, nor have I read a more spot on accurate comment as Rowan's below. So a year on I though it is time to repost and confirm Rawan's comment as I couldn't say it any better: " Your video was fantastic. You are a credit to the music industry. I have never in my 57 years on this planet had anyone teach like you do. Outstanding work. You preempt exactly what my next question was going to be with a expert answer. Exemplary camera work also."

Outstanding vid. Great explanation of the bridge and how it works. Very, very helpful. Best I've ever seen.

Amazing thank you!! 🙏This is exactly the video I needed, extremely well explained. Very detailed, but moves through each subject at a good pace - doesn't 'drag on' on like some explanations. Stellar work! 😊

Most thorough explanation I’ve seen of the Tune O Matic. Great job!

One of the best videos and explanation on bridge and tailpiece set up I've seen yet. Nice job!

What a fantastic video! I had my flying v set up recently which has a tune-o-matic bridge and this really helped me to understand how to tweak the action in future if need be

thanks for this! I just bought an SG and spent last night bummed out that the strings were dead and buzzing on the frets, once I really got into playing it. I watched this, learned the anatomy and mechanisms, then I put new strings on and made some pretty dramatic adjustments and it is "fixed". I was almost going to take it back, but it was just way off/ strings needed to be raised.

Absolutely Brilliant!!! Fantastic detail and narration. Great high def camera work also. I am a tech of 20 years and he taught me a couple of points for sure.

Fantastic video, it's the first video I've seen that gives a full explanation of exactly why the individual parts have been engineered the way they have and the theory behind it.

Thanks for this! I'm building a les paul special. This is exactly what I needed learned so much. Thanks again and subscribed.

Hey very informative video , Daniel! Thank you! Learned alot! Im American and my young daughter is going around the house with an English accent saying ..."its the Sad-dle....Adjust the Sad-dle......"

Brilliant video. This is the best explanation I have seen on KZfaq and I have been looking at them all. Thanks for showing us this and I have just subscribed. Cheers mate.

Thee best tun o matic bridge tutorial on KZfaq. Thank you good sir

I mostly play my strats simple because i don't like how the bridges are set up on my Les Paul and SG. I never really took the time to understand them. But you've certainly shed a lot of light on that style of bridge.

Dude, this was awesome. Would love to see a full setup vid done by you.

have a tune-o-matic bridge, was afraid touching it till saw this brilliant video, and I'm so appreciative for your afford explaining in the most clear and understandable way!... big thanks!!!

Excellent, thorough beginner-level explanation, pleasant to watch and listen to. Thank you most kindly!

excellent detailed video.thank you very much!

Pretty informative vid! I thought this was gonna be boring considering that it's a 20 minute video, but damn I was focused all the way through, keep it up! and I'm still waiting for the full setup haha, and I hope you elaborate more things on what could cause fret buzzes.

Fantastic video. Thank you for making this. This is the best video on this topic I have found so far. ❤

Hi . I've been playing Les Paul Guitars for about 40 years , which is about how long I've been playing Guitar . I've learned a lot about Guitar Repair , such as Neck Adjustment , Pickup Installation , Setting Intonation , etc . But some of the details that you shared in this Video I never knew and I never thought about . I knew that the Saddle Nut Radius needs to match the Fretboard Radius , but I guess I've always had my Bridge in backwards . That explains why I always have a problem with my Intonation . Thank you so much for making this Video . I hope you're doing well and staying safe . 😃 Thank you for taking the time to put in the time and effort to create this Video . I'm your newest Subscriber and now I'm going to go thru all of your Content to learn as much as I can . 🎸

Spot on explanation. The whole better resonance/sustain from a fully screwed down tail piece is something I have yet to see any proof of so I'm still doing a medium tension with thru-hole stringing. It may be another "tone-woods" debate that never gets anywhere.

You have the most amazing voice. i could listen to you for ever. I already know how a tune o matic bridge works, but you took it to another level. Thank you

I just got the latest Epiphone Les Paul studio and had no idea how to setup the bridge and how the saddle worked before watching this and hit a brick wall... Not anymore! Absolutely brilliant this video is! AbsoluteLy THE champion of guitar instruction. Most Ive learnt from any other source period. Many thanks for sharing man, This Truly is the best ✌️,

Very good tutorial. It covers all aspects of the tune-o-matic setup and some of its variants.

Thank you very much for this video ! you helped me a lot ! I found here, everything that I was looking for so long, great job ! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you ! : D

I have a tewwible wobble wif me fumwheels lately.......... Great video btw.

This video should have 1 million views or more!... Thank you very much!

this is one of the best videos on youtube. so carefully made. congrats!

2:23 black metal:))))

No offense, but I'm impressed you spend 20 minutes explaining possibly the simplest bridge ever. Fits on posts, adjust with thumb wheels and has screws under each saddle for intonation. Done, 10 seconds!

At last Ive learnt something about set ups ,best video I've seen on this subject Steve Manchester UK ✌️

Covers a lot of the detail I had to learn by trial and error. Very clear and understandable.

A very thorough review. Actually, one of the best on youtube.

I watched about 10 videos on this subject, none explained the hardware as well, or had such good, closeups of the parts. Well done!

What a great video. Such a fantastic, detailed, patient explanation of the tune-o-matic bridge. Fantastic. Subscribing.

Another really helpful video. Your camera work, with those close ups, is excellent. Many thanks.

Thank you! Obviously from my Avatar you can see i'm primarily a Strat guy. But I recently purchased a 2012 lefty Gibson LPJ Cherry Stain. It's a beautiful instrument and your video taught me some useful tips as I try to setup my LPJ to suit my own needs. Thank you!

Terrific video! Clear and informative. Information and accent are on point :) Love the tailpiece wrap trick. A++ Thanks from USA!

I just got my first guitar with this type of bridge (Guild Surfliner Deluxe) and this was tremendously helpful/educational. Thank you so much!

Best video out there. Well explained and great video quality. The tune-o-matic doesn't seem so mysterious now.

Excellent video - loads of detail and advice. :)

Another great video. Very clear,Easy to digest as always. Another Great Job Daniel.... Thanks........

Very cool, the first time I see someting so detailed about bridge! Thanks!

Dude, you are so good at this kind of thing. This was a bit more “101” than I needed to go, but I ended up watching start to finish to learn some more detail just based on how great your photography and explanations were! These are the kinds of videos I would make if I had a British accent!! Haha cheers!!

Superb informative video full of useful practical guidance. I also like your gentle style.

Perfect explanation and phantastic camara work. Thank you for teaching all the important details.

very informative easy to follow video. great stuff man

Thanks. Amazing video very well produced

This video is so helpful! Thank you!

This was a terrific and very informative video - thank you so much.

you did great job with this video! thank you!

Very helpful, exactly what i was searching for. Thank you.

Thanks, you were the best so far. i'll take your advice. Love your guitars. I paint mine also :)

Nice vid! Thanks for the patience 🙏🏻!!

EXCELLENT video !! Thanks so much for making it. I learned a few things I had not previously considered… especially the lollipop stick trick 😃

Huh.. nice popsicle stick trick !! Thanks for the time and effort for this video. Very informative and a good reference.

Just what I needed. Just got a Les Paul type guitar, and I always want to learn everything about it, so I can set it up myself. Thanks.

Very useful - thanks for enlightening me on the tune-o-matic.

Wow. Just saw this. U explained a lot that I did not know. Have issues w my 335 copy and u showed me a few things to work on!

Great video! Very informative.

This is the last word on the Tuneomatic. Excellent! Well done. The video does show how annoying slot head screws are. Hex socket heads would be great in this application.

Best & most helpful guide I’ve ever seen - thank you! 👏👏👏👏🙂

This was incredible, I never knew any of this. Thank you so much.

quick tip - put a large rubber eraser behind the tailpiece when taking off and resetting brand new strings - this keeps the tailpiece in place so it doesn't fall off and scratch the guitar.

Brilliant and complete explanation. Thank you Daniel!

Great video. I love tune-o-matic bridges 😊

Fantastic video! Thanks a lot

Amazing video , many thanks

Very informative and well explained (and filmed). Thanks.

Good job! Thank you. I love the way you explain things. I learned what I was looking for and more. new sub!

BEST explanation ever for these bridges!

at first i was “okay what can we talk for 20 minutes in terms of tune-o-matic” and then “ah this is why i was never able to setup my low E properly, my saddles are all face-front”, thanks for the video!

BRILLIANT I too would love to see you walk through a full set up - Les Paul & PRS custom 24 !!??

Daniel, this is a truly great video ,nice and calmly explained and exceptional good and clear camerawork ; Thanks a lot

Thoughtfully displayed. Excellently explained. Great insight. So much knowledge. Thank you 🙏

wow that fantastic detailed video and is very useful , thanks

Really nice! Many thanks 👍
