[CAUT] Bridge roll and uneven string angles

I think roll can become severe enough to cause a major crack in the 
soundboard in front of the bridge.  I've noticed this when the angle of 
the string behind the bridge is much greater than the angle on the 
front.  I think bearing bars by the hitch pins help to ease this condition.
