I just bought a Talman Ibanez electric, and i was wondering if the metal thing under the strings im guessing its called the bridge or the pickup (ive never really played an electric til recently) is it suppose to be lose or should i tighten up the screws? any help would be greatly appreciated

well the bridge and the pickup are too totally differant thiongs and seriously man if you dont know what your doing dont go tightening or losening anything it could seriously fuck your guitar up

P.S. The guitar should come ready to rock

Hell yeah, I would love a nice Ibanez hollowbody. Like the one the guy from soulive plays or John Scofield.

At least on my electric the bridge and saddle arent connected at all. The only thing keeping them on is the strings. Dont mess with the screws on the saddle, you could make the action crooked. I dont know if thats what you were asking or not.

yes dont be messin wit cho pickups.

if you were wonderin what the screws do, tightening them will bring them closer to the strings and thus increase trebble. opposite will do... the opposite
