Power Pins product installed on Takamine
Good friend RH bought his old favorite guitar out of the closet and into the shop for some tune up work and the addtion of the a product know as Power Pins. Issues with the guitar included poor action, poor fitting saddle and missing MOP dot on bridge.
First thing to address the saddle. A new bone blank was shaped to be a compensating saddle. The width was of the slot was checked and the blank was thicknessed to adjusted properly fit. Now the action could be looked at.
Treble strings of the guitar were nearly on the fretboard. This was due to the old saddle laying over to a apx 30 degrees. The new saddle height was carefully adjusted to make the action proper.
Power Pins installation was rather easy. The PP replace the existing pins and allow one to restring as though it were a "pass though" bridge. The tone of the guitar is marketed as being improved.
Last the MOP dot was installed and new Med strings installed to complete the project.
Here are images of final result.
