Its threaded brass pin mount allows secure, no-drill installation beneath the bridge, improving bridge alignment and sound projection. Ideal for 12-string guitars, it enhances volume, tone, and sustain with easy DIY setup. ## Description The JLD Bridge Doctor Enhances volume Flattens 'bellied' soundboards A unique solution to a common bridge problem, this spruce device attaches beneath a guitar bridge. An adjustable spruce "pressure post" rests against the tailblock, providing leverage to flatten the soundboard. The spruce block is 3/4" x 1-5/8" x 3-3/8" tall. The 1/4"-diameter tension rod is 9" long. The mounting post has three different positions to accomodate a variety of bridge styles. Brass pin mount version: The pin-mounted version of the JLD Bridge Doctor attaches beneath the bridge using a threaded brass bridge pin. The strings mount horizontally through the tops of the matching brass bridge pins (included). An adjustable spruce pressure post rests against the tailblock, providing leverage to flatten the soundboard. Better bridge contact and alignment can also enhance sound projection. StewMac Tech Tip: We recommend the brass pin mount version for 12-string guitars. Installation instructions included. Review: Fantastic product that fixed my problem! - This product just works. Beautifully! I installed this on my wife's vintage 1966 Gibson B-25. Her father bought it for her new at that time. The guitar was unused for many years and when I inspected it found a dip between the sound hole and bulge below the bridge. Found this device and decided to go for the brass pin model because I didn't want to drill a hole in the guitar. Well it arrived a couple days ago and realized its a good thing I got the brass pin model because there isn't enough room on the bridge to drill a hole. Well this went right on, took about 30 minutes. Once installed, I just tightened the set screw and like magic the top flattened out. Strung it up and it sounded pretty good, I figured it needed some time to settle so the next day, I played it a little, sounded good but not great with silk/brass strings. Decided to put some 80/20 Brass strings on it to brighten things up. After getting the old strings off, I found a couple of the brass pins a bit loose, especially the low E. Well, I tightened everything up, straightened out the alignment of a couple and lowered the saddle a bit. Well after I got everything back together and played this thin I was shocked at the beautiful sounds that were coming from this thing. I understand it may take a few weeks for the guitar to really settle in and reach its final destination but right now 2 days in I am amazed at the quality of the sound. The action is still a bit high for me, not much and because of the pin height and how the string breaks over the saddle at a low angle, I will need to contemplate a final solution but its a minor issue as I only need to lower the action about 1/2 mm. I was ready to spend up to $500 to have this fixed by a luthier but now I think this is a better solution because it is a permanant fix. I highly recommend this product. Review: Outstanding Product - FAR easier to install than I had anticipated and the difference it made is absolutely astounding. This was a last-ditch effort to save a cheap 12 string with serious bridge peel-back and belly bulge. This completely fixed both issues, and it not only sounds better than it did new, it sounds nearly as good as some of my solid-tops. It dramatically enhanced the tone and sustain of the guitar. I was initially concerned by the price, but it is worth every single penny. I could not be happier with the results. ## Features - A unique solution to a common bridge problem, this spruce device attaches beneath a guitar bridge - An adjustable spruce "pressure post" rests against the tailblock, providing leverage to flatten the soundboard - Better bridge contact and alignment can also enhance sound projection - This pin-mount version attaches beneath the bridge using a threaded brass bridge pin, and the strings mount horizontally through the tops of the matching brass bridge pins (included) - Installation instructions included ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #22,255 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #69 in Guitar Bridges & Bridge Parts | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 165 Reviews | ## Images ![JLD Bridge Doctor, Brass Pin Mount, for Flattening Bulging Guitar Soundboards - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81hfuisRWcL.jpg) ![JLD Bridge Doctor, Brass Pin Mount, for Flattening Bulging Guitar Soundboards - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/5180yIxa42L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic product that fixed my problem! *by S***E on September 13, 2019* This product just works.

In the hands of a good luthier, this product cleaned all that up. It didn't seem to alter the instrument's basic tone. In my situation, I did not need the brass pins that came with it. If you are having trouble with the bridge coming loose, the pins might be a good idea. Otherwise, save some money and get the version without them ## Frequently Bought Together - JLD Bridge Doctor Brass Pin Mount - Alnicov Stainless Steel String Action Ruler Guitar Setup Gauge Luthier Measuring Tool with User Guide for Electric, Acoustic & Bass Guitars - Alnicov 3.3 Feet Pre-tinned Guitar Wire 22awg -22ga Cloth-Covered Push Back Vintage-Style Guitar Wire --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/46687605-jld-bridge-doctor-brass-pin-mount-for-flattening-bulging-guitar](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/46687605-jld-bridge-doctor-brass-pin-mount-for-flattening-bulging-guitar) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-13*
