The discussion simply took a largely because I didn't quite understand the original post. My apologies. There may be times when an inadequate notch on the bridge might have to be corrected with the bridge pins still in place. I have run into that problem once or twice. If that occurs, you can do it with a very small devised chisel without removing the bridge pins. The post may have no bearing on the original issue but there is some merit.

If hammer voicing made any difference at all, why in the world would anyone suspect the notching? Looking at the photo, the notching looks functionally adequate to me, with the visible anomaly not obviously a problem. Does anyone else see potential for a real performance detriment here? I don't, unless the visibly loose bridge pins cause false beats, which is highly unlikely this low in the scale. And if the notching isn't demonstrably the problem, why all this worry about "fixing" it? I don't get it.
