Baggs Element Active pickup.Pro Series electronics are customizable, though - please contact us if youwould prefer an alternate system.Breedlove MandolinsBreedlove Quartz FF MandolinBreedlove Mandolins are dynamic and full voiced. Our mandolin bodies areslightly deeper than conventional mandolins, with higher arches in the top andback. Tonewoods resonate freely thanks to a free-floating fingerboardextension, smaller neck and tail blocks, and a bolt-on neck. Breedlovemandolins are well-known for their easy playability. A radiused fretboard, lowstring height, ample string set separation, and a 1-3/16” nut width make themextremely comfortable. Breedlove mandolins are optimized for use withmedium-light gauge strings, but you may also use light or heavy strings.12
Floating Fingerboard ExtensionAdjustable BridgeChanging Strings on your MandolinWhen changing strings, pay close attention to the location and orientation ofbridge on the body. When strings are removed, the bridge may move. If youremove all the strings at once, it will be unsupported and will fall off. It is agood idea to mark the location of the bridge prior to changing strings. Placesmall pieces of masking tape on the top of the mandolin at each point of thebridge base to mark the location. Also note the orientation of the bridge, andmark one side with tape if you are not sure you know which way it goes. Toensure proper instrument intonation, the bridge must be in the correct location.It is also a good idea to protect the finish of the instrument with a soft clothwhile changing strings. String ends can scratch the finish, as can any movementof the bridge. Please call Breedlove if we may be of assistance during your firststring change.Electronic Pickups for MandolinsFor minimum acoustic impact and a rich, naturally balanced tone, Breedloverecommends the Schertler C-DYN-M, an electrodynamic contact microphoneco-designed by Schertler and Breedlove.
