Agree with Silverface and J.Hayes. I had Dave Evans put his Pull String in my favorite guitar. Why a Pull String? Well, because after alot of research, and having a Glaser that I had installed in the early 90's, Dave's design really caught my eye....but the fact that the pull length was variable, and the pull "pressure" was also infinitely variable, did it for me. My problem is, the way I play, if I don't have a really strong spring pressure, I'm constantly pulling the B string sharp as I play. With the Evans, I can set it tight so there are no accidental bends. I suppose I should just try to alter my style.....that's really tough after over 40 years! Anyway, I got off the subject.....sorry! Not a thing wrong with any of the "bolt on" type benders!
