    Bernie SE Upgrades

    For those of you who have installed the MannMade bridge, a quick question. They offer the metric model as well as the US...I assume that the metric is the direct drop-in for the Bernie. Is that what y'all have used? By the way...I'm on my second Bernie. Sold the first for some reason...probably...

    Thanks for the feedback, Garrett. Would you need to add a capacitor or change a value to not change the neck tone (I.e. not brighten it)? BTW...I'm in the Atlanta area, too.:hello:

    Bernie question for Mike Garvey or any of the other Bernie owners...I never turn back the tone on my neck pup, but (usually) prefer the bridge tone rolled off a bit. Could I just have my tech disconnect the wire from the neck pickup to the tone pot, keeping it only on the bridge pup? Would that...

    I'm such a dummy :-( and Pete, you're a genius! What a simple, beautiful solution. Many thanks, I'm sure my tech can make the change.

    Thanks for your feedback, ]-[ @ n $ 0 |v| a T ! © and jfine. This may turn out to be more of a project than I anticipated. The concentric stacked pots are fine and would probably accomplish what I wanted, but in researching them, I've not been able to find any knobs for the stacked pots that...

    The ONLY thing I don't love about my Bernie...

    Yeah, I thought briefly about a push/pull pot, or would that be a stacked pot? Not sure that I know the difference. Thanks for the suggestion. Any particular specs I should look for?

    The ONLY thing I don't love about my Bernie...

    ...is the lack of a second tone control. Literally the only thing I'm not crazy about. I love the look, the feel, the binding, the neck, the neck...and did I mention the NECK? For the sounds, I love the neck pup with the tone all the way up, but I really like the tone rolled off a bit on the...

    Dane and dog...didn't see a response to my question about which Tonepros bridge y'all used. Was it the AVT2M? I've been looking at the AVT2M-N (nickel) at some online shops, but wasn't sure if that was right.

    John, I actually found them on the Bay at $9.95 each, and they have the raw nickel (unplated for that aged look) covers for less. They were great to work with and shipped them immediately. The vendor is Philadelphia Luthier Tools and Supplies and I have absolutely no relationship with...

    Yeah, Mike, I really like the vintage keystones, so I'll stay in the family. Maybe Gibson's or Gotoh?
