Hi Guys
Ok here is something new for me. I am looking at 53 conversion with some work done and
a shaved bridge to compensate for the neck angle. Any thoughts on what that shaving does to the
sound of the guitar.

I also don't believe it has any negative effect as long as it sits as flat to the top as it can? If your describing a shaved ABR that is not attached to threaded rods and raised from the top?
