The Short Stop is a combination bridge and tailpiece produced for Ibanez and used on several models of Ibanez guitars.
Description[]
The Short Stop integrates the function of the bridge and tailpiece into a single unit by both retaining the string and allowing adjustment for height and intonation.
Strings are retained by the ball end in six slots behind the bridge. The height of the bridge is adjusted by raising or lowering the pair of studs which are mounted into the guitar body. Six individual saddles can be adjusted fore and aft to set intonation and then are locked down with a screw.
The Short Stop was mostly replaced after 1995 by the Short Stop II which was introduced in 1996.
