Abstract
A system for anchoring a guitar string comprising a guitar top, a bridge fixed to the guitar top, and at least one aperture extending through the bridge and top for receiving an end of a string with a ball attached thereto. A bridge pin has a body that is insertable into the aperture. The body has two spaced-apart legs forming a space therebetween wide enough to accommodate the string but not the ball. A rear side of the legs has matching anchoring surfaces that are constructed and arranged to receive and retain the ball when the string is in tension.
