I usually take all my strings off so I can clean the guitar half decent. But with the tune-o-matic or any bridge with adjustable posts these always get turned leaving you having to set up the bridge again.

This is that simple its laughable just get an elastic band and wrap it around the top of the posts and the tension stops them turning :-D

Both parts if its needed saves taking measurements etc.

I only needed it on the actual bridge part not the stop tail. ;-)
