For baritones I need more compensation - particularly on the base strings - but others may build a different way. This is the picture in the other post that is not showing:

Does compensation for acoustic basses and baritones generally need to be same, less than, or equal to a standard steel string? Do string tension and string size both play a part in that? What do some of you use as a general rule? Thanks -j. |

Now that the excitment of John Watkins' contest has died down, is there anyone out there who can answer this? Thanks -j. |

On 28-29 inch scales, using the 16-70 Daddario set, I set the bridge slot leading edge forward 1mm for the high B, and set the centre of the slot at about 5mm for the low B. I also use a 3/16 saddle on bari's, so there is more room to move around the break point at the saddle. |
