Single Treble Bridge

[Tom Cole]

Del,

You discussed, in a recent post, the need for a separate tenor bridge
for wound strings and that the speaking lengths should be an extension
of the bass section. It occurred to me today that Steinway tried that
over 100 years ago and abandoned the idea. I also have heard of someone
who has converted the early model As to a single treble bridge design,
saying that it's an improvement.

So I'm confused and would like to hear your opinions on this conundrum.

Tom
