However, the speaking lengths on note #1 only changed from 46.5" to 46.3" and from 38.7" to 38.4" at note #26 (highest bass note). >> Did you think this change was a noticeable tonal improvement? It sounds as if the basic overall position of the bridge changed little but if there was a change on a scale of 1-10 how much. Totally subjective but go for it. Sorry, this doesn't help you with your damping questions though. Interesting concern though - would sure like to hear what others may have found in cases such as this. >> Me too Regarding bass bridge shape and ultimate position - is it not best to let that be determined by rescaling data? >>>Yes it is but I also don't wish for the bridge to sit too far out on the board/rib edge which is what I suspect the logic of the cantilever is all about in the first place. And it might be interesting to see how the scaling would work out if a transition tenor bridge was considered. >>> Yes it would. But can't afford to go to far on this.
