Does the saddle fit into the pickup groove like the Ovation does or does the pickup just sit in the bridge below the saddle?

It is made to go in the slot, below the saddle. The 6 little bumps need to line up with the strings as much as possible. I hope that this helps

Sits in bridge. But unbelievable value for a client who both him and I wanted to keep his old vintage scousvbsss stick. Others went for $100 s. If your in phx az I'll yltskr a look at your ovation. Used to play them when I performed in late 70 s haha

There's a suction cup on the pickup, so you just lick it and slap it onto the body of the guitar. Mine tends to come off after a short while and needs to be restuck, but plenty of reviewers say they haven't had that problem. I will say that I regret spending $10 on mine, as it's basically worthless. The sound it picks up is so minimal that I have to literally crank my amp up all the way just to get enough sound to fill a bedroom. Again, apparently many people don't have that problem, but with such a hit-or-miss product you're probably better off spending a little more money on a better one.

The ball ends will not fit into this bridge. You have to clip the ball ends off with wire cutters and then you clamp the string into that saddle via the usually provided allen key. Additionally, this will not fit a standard Stratocaster without modifications, IE Routing and post/insert placement. You may have been told about Floyd Rose Bridges that do accept ball ends, but this is not that type of bridge.

It will fit a fender or Squier tele with the vintage 3 saddle bridge and upright vertical sides. It's the upright vertical sides that is fits over

It will fit some pickups. Sound hole is smaller than average so some won't fit without a little modification but this isn't the kind of guitar you are going to need to plug in. It's a small fun parlor guitar.

If the tailpiece end of the saddle is like a les Paul were the strings go through it will fit.

This bridge is awesome. It tightens to the pole front or back the is small hex on both sides. So you can make it straight or a little crooked which ever you prefer . The really nice thing is, the roller saddles can be flipped around to change the height of the string I had to do so for proper intonation on my Les Paul. No springs to loose either. Hope that helps.

It is mounted under the saddle. You drill a small hole and feed the wire through and plug it in. You will have to sand the saddle off the same thickness as the pickup bar to retain the same action on the guitar.

On mine, it is etched into the pickguard. Seems to be done fairly well for an inexpensive guitar. But remember, if you buy this it will need a setup (about $75) to be really playable. They are mass-produced and the adjustments made at the factory in China are not very accurate.

I like the action low, so I have both lowered and raised the action using the truss rod. it's easy and one can find instructions online. Lowering the saddle is more complicating but I have not needed to do that.

I think it's just to show that a pickup could be fitted should you wish it. It's a beautiful instrument, and my wife has been enjoying it very much, if that helps.

I am not familiar with Yamaha guitars, so I cannot give you a definitive answer.. Sorry. Measure the slot in the bridge that your saddle fits into (length & width) & inform the person you are buying the pickup from, & they should be able to give you the right size. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

The pick-up is for a standard sized sound hole. I don't think it would fit on a smaller guitar.

It will depend if the groove in your bridge is slotted for a wide saddle or a narrow one. I think most of them are narrow. I got a narrow one and I put it on my Blueridge guitar & it fit good. I do not know what the measurements are for the grooves, but I know on my Martin D-35 the groove was narrow, & I have an Epiphone that has a narrow groove. If the groove has been widened for a compensated saddle you should be able to compare it to another guitar. Hope this helps. blugrsindn

No, it only fits the 3 saddle vintage bridges. You can install one on yours like I did. It sounds SO much better with brass saddles

I'm not sure about an Ovation. Mine is a Michael Kelly A-Style and it fits. A little tight but can still fit it in there.

It does not, but straps are not terribly expensive. I've been very happy with the guitar; it has what I would call a "woody" sound. I would recommend having someone at your local guitar shop set it up. It makes it much easier to play.
