*Why ?

I've rigged it very poorly right now, and the guitar pickups seem to work well enough. I filed down the bridge to fit the strings in, and uncoiled the end of the strings to fit them through the tremolo. I had to put them in backwards, and then re-attach the little balls at the end to get them through. I'm just wondering if anyone has experience doing this, and knows of a better way...

*Buy a Double-neck....One bass, one guitar......




*This re-wrapping string balls and filing down bridge stuff sounds kinda garage, dude....I'm REALLY curious why you're doing this :)....Do tell us :)
*Turn the bastard up and see what happenz.... :D
