malmsteen Posted January 2, 2004 Report Share Posted January 2, 2004 im building a les paul so i have the thing that holds the strings and the thing the strings go over. (i dont know the names of the things) My question is how far away is the thing that the strings are held in to the other thing? also, should i put the thing the strings go over at an angle, or can i just leave it straight?
