Is it more just a design when adding a tailpiece to the guitar or does it actually change the sound, sustain or even help reduce string breakage due to the angle?
In looking at this video, it seems you cannot adjust the intonation on the McCarty, (like you can on the tuneomatic type bridge of the 594) only the height on the bridge with the screws on the left and right screws.
In this video it is said that the McCarty fixed bridge is also adjusted. If you put heavier gauge strings where the G string is wrapped, you need to change the bridge. He said to buy a after market one, but I found that PRS also sells them.
