jazzric Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Can anyone please direct me to info regarding a step by step type video like Nathan Shane did on how the Variax Piezo Bridge & Saddles are put together. I have a Variax 600 that's making some noise, cracking sound. Thanks in advance. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leesteel Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 The 600 bridge is similar to the one shown in my post about Ghost saddle installation except instead of a mylar ribbon, there is a small circuit board attached to the block on the bottom of the bridge. Each saddle (L6 type) has a single wire that passes through and is soldered to this circuit board. Here is a youtube video of what yours looks like. https://youtu.be/9itJCmOZC-k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzric Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 Beautiful.... Thank you Lee, I will check this out. So is safe to say that I don't need a bridge just the saddles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leesteel Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Yes and better yet, you could upgrade to Ghost saddles. The only thing you will run into in that scenario is that the Ghost saddles have a ground wire that must be connected so you will need to locate ground on the little circuit board. If you decide to go that route, you could send me a picture of the circuit board and I can assist you in making the mod. http://www.graphtech.com/products/brands/ghost/ghost-pickups---guitar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
