Questions & Answers

What size is this bridge, such as 5/8, etc. ?

A guide to global health policies This was the only one I got, and it was 5/8 inches high

How high should the 4th string sit, and is it okay for it to be slightly above? The string plane should be level for all strings?

Don't take any chances
5/5

Be diligent in your studies. This would have been nearly impossible to fit on Although it is a very solid and appealing program, it may not be able to handle the string width I have unless I am It might be worth trying again one day, but it also changed the way I was acting As you can tell, I have lots to learn and am not an expert on the banjo. I decided to give five stars to the seller in order not to deflate their rating. To get recommendations from a pro shop and to inspect several bridges in person, I recommend you visit a store.

When you need to replace a part quickly, this is the part you need
4/5

Putting in a new bridge to replace my old cracked one was a breeze. It arrived just in time to take part in a jam session, and it The only complaint is that there wasn't quite enough depth in the grooves. When I used a razor blade to cut it, the situation improved greatly.

The banjo bridge is great! What you can expect from a good banjo bridge is pretty much this
5/5

With the new bridge and a new head, it's like it's a brand new banjo. I replaced a very old one that had sat in storage for so long on a loose head that it became concave.

This bridge is great for banjo
5/5

It has been working well with a banjo that I am putting together. It works great and it's cheap! I haven't been playing banjo for a very long time, so I don't know a whole lot about it, but it's great!.

I've had no issues with it
5/5

This one was great. The notch is deep enough to hold the string. The first one I ordered broke, but this one was perfect. All right, I bought it.
