Struggling with tuning stability on your Gibson or Les Paul? This simple setup tip can make a huge difference.
In this video, I walk through how adjusting the stopbar tailpiece height changes the string break angle—and why making sure your strings clear the back of the bridge can improve tuning, sustain, and overall feel.
This is one of the most overlooked setup tweaks, but it can completely transform how your guitar behaves.
If you've been fighting tuning issues, especially on bends or after playing hard, this might be the fix you’ve been missing.
🎸 Works for:
Gibson Les Paul models
SG models
Any tune-o-matic + stopbar setup
