hardtail bridge

string through the back of the bridge

9-42 strings

I can't keep a high E on this thing. I've broken 2 within 20 minutes of playing per string. One was Ernie Ball, the other Dean Markley. I've NEVER had this problem with any guitar/bridge in my life. The both broke around the ball end. Any clues or suggestions I can try?

Maybe a burr on the bridge? I had the same problem with A strings on my guitars. I ended up filing the saddle and rounding it over a little bit. I haven't broken another one since.

I'm applying to work in the Lincolnshire Police and have to declare all of my tattoos. Do I get taxed or perhaps discriminated by them somehow? I better kin not.

More than likely it is for identification purposes.

I had been going back and forth between long and short hair through high school and my undergrad. For the past three years or so I have had long hair. Being a middle school teacher i always figured i would have more problems getting a job based on the tattoo on my wrist than my hair.

This one was from about a year and a half ago.

SG's usually use a tune-o-matic bridge which would mean that the neck needs to angle a bit. So it should be a little bit above the body.

It's pretty close to the Schecter Tempest, but far enough off that you should be alright.
