hello
my first post here.
i recently bought an eastman ar805 acoustic archtop. everything about the guitar is great so far aside from a problem with the bridge posts. they are leaning in the direction of the neck. i tried switching the bridge around, which helped somewhat but the bridge doesn't meet the body as well as before and therefore i switched it back to its original position.
has anyone experienced this problem with their archtop and a wooden (mine is ebony) bridge? is the bridge defective? or is there a workaround for this? i'm using a d'addario 13-56 nickle wound string set in standard tuning. the action setting is moderate, not insanely low or anything like that.
many thanks for any help on this.
