Below is a 2003 Gibson LP standard. The playability has been compromised as the bridge has become concave, hence the D and G strings are now lower in action. Correcting the problem is a simple process, however this is the main reason why many people tweak incessantly on their TOM bridges and never get the right feel. Ok, here's how it should be done:
The bridge is clamped with a radiused block to fit the underside of the bridge. The bridge is checked for straightness after.
The guitar is setup and plays wonderfully after a simple diagnosis.
