Hi, stumbled across this forum looking for UK2 info, great site!

I have a UK2 which sounds great, but there a few minor issues I'm having with it playing wise. I read the manual at ovationtribute.com, however mine has a brass bridge and no screw on the back of the body to adjust the bridge angle (or pickguard)

The intonation is slightly out, particularly on the G string. The G string is also slightly higher than the others. Is there anyway to adjust the angle of the bridge to allow access to the saddle screws, as they're blocked by the plastic pickup mounting?

Thanks for your help!

Hi, and welcome. Here are some manuals with your bridge, and adjustment procedures. If this is not enough, Miles (aka Mr. Ovation) is the guy with all the solidbody answers.
