Hey, welcome to AGF.
Not to be contrarian but ... i have a pinless guitar about 35+ yrs and have never had any bridge issues with it. I agree with LJ in that there are pinless and then there are pinless.
Off topic but others have noted what they do when they change strings on a pinless bridge. I change all my strings at once (another story) and then i snake all 6 new strings thru their bridge holes. Take the old 5th string and fish it thru the 'ball' hole of each new string (hope this description makes sense). I just like the clean orderly look of the 'ball' ends lining up. Obviously this would not work if there end 'ball' is recessed into the bridge. After getting the new strings on their post, i pull out the old 5th string and tighten to pitch. Needless to say i am not a speed demon when it comes to changing strings.
