You would prefer...what? The tenor/treble bridge? Gets cumbersome after a
while. Besides, considering the frequencies involved the piano really
doesn't have much of a true "treble." Rather more like a long mid-range. So,
how about the "long bridge?" Might be better. At least it differentiates it
from the "short" bridge down at the other end. How about "the upper end of
the long bridge."
