Just curious Ron, what is your reasoning for three points of string contact (front, center and rear) rather than two? Two would bind the string up in some desired way. I can see that three points would lock the string in much more firmly. But two could also - much like the forward termination on most pianos whether it is an agraffe or the capo bar.
