View AllEverTune Bass Bridge Q&A
We invited EverTune users to ask questions regarding the upcoming EverTune Bass Bridge and EverTune in general. Here is how the back and forth went.
Release
Q9: When will there be a multiscale EverTune available?
A9: For bass, it should be available upon release. For guitar, it will be available if and when we update guitar with bass technology.
Q31: Will there be any stock basses with EverTune, and when?
A31: Yes, we cannot say when, though.
Design
Q2: I keep reading that the rout will be a smaller footprint. I also have not seen a picture of the back of a bass with the EverTune yet. Can you provide more information?
A2: The bass is only routed from the top.
Q29: Is there any plan to make it modular to streamline production and/or make string spacing adjustments? If each saddle and spring could be slid onto a central railing.
A29: This is the way the current bass is designed.
Installation
Q6: Will there be local techs that are qualified to install the bass bridge upon release?
A6: Since the rout is so simple, we're sure there will be more techs willing to do this and any tech that currently offers guitar installations should be happy to do a bass installation.
Technical Specifications
Q2023e06d06: What is the maximum string gauge that the bass bridge will accept?
A2023e06d06: The string hole is 5mm. So it can fit anything just under that -- up to size 190. Bigger than that and a standard sting ball could go through, so we cannot make it any bigger.
Q4: What is the maximum scale length the bass bridge will be able to support?
A4: It should support any scale length as the modules are modular and the baseplates that hold the modules can be single module plates, so they can be placed anywhere, as is the case with monorail saddles.
Q8: Will you offer different tension spare parts right away?
A8: The bass handles tension 20 – 70 pounds with no modification. This should be the whole range of bass string tensions, although it is optimized for the 30 - 60 pound range.
Q23: Where is the EverTune produced?
A23: EverTune is currently produced in Korea.
Q24: What is the unit weight?
A24: This information will be made available on release.
Future Plans
Q1: Will EverTune V2 for guitar have a similar design and require less space like the bass EverTune?
A1: That is the plan but can never be sure until it is done.
Q3: How is the tremolo version coming along for EverTune?
A3: It is in our sights and plans. We cannot predict a timeline though.
Q9: When will there be a multiscale EverTune available?
A9: For bass, it should be available upon release. For guitar, it will be available if and when we update guitar with bass technology.
Q10: What plans does EverTune have for future improvements or new features?
A10: The improvements that are incorporated into the bass are: smaller size, ability to handle the whole tension range with one module. In the future, we will also try to offer a tremolo functionality.
Q18: Are there any plans to do a bridge for acoustic guitars?
A18: Our next product release will probably be one of these 3: updated EverTune electric guitar version, EverTune that works on acoustic guitars, tremolo EverTune.
Q23b: Is a trem version even possible from an engineering standpoint?
A23b: Yes, tremolo is possible.
Q23c: Are there plans to have additional OEM guitar/bass manufacturers?
A23c: Yes, we are always trying to extend the EverTune OEM family.
Q25: I struggle to think of a better invention for guitarists than the EverTune. Sincerely. That said, I'm curious if future models will have updates to address sustain loss on the high strings past the 12th fret.
A25: We will, of course, try to improve sustain if possible on any future products.
Q26: Have you considered a module that would replace a tailpiece and bridge on an LP, therefore requiring no routing? Also, a module that could replace a Floyd Rose directly?
A26: We have discussed the possibilities of a zero-routing bridge. Right now, it would sit too high off the guitar, but in the future, who knows?
Q28: I would like to know if there is an EverTune solution in the works for the Tune-o-matic bridges, or any type of raised bridge, that covers the holes of the bridge and tailpiece.
A28: We have not considered this. We can consider it for any guitar update. However, that bridge would be artificially wide to cover those holes totally. Therefore, we recommend filling the holes.
Q30: Will the new version of the bridge allow for a G version that has the same footprint as the F or will it still need the big screws?
A30: Any guitar update that uses the bass technology should have only one footprint (one style), unlike the current F and G style bridges.
