<html> <body> Try pressing a screwdriver against the bass bridge and see how that affects the tone.  Is this an apron bridge?  I repaired a Baldwin with glue trickled in between the bridge and soundboard and screws with washers from the soundboard side into the bridge.  Fairly simple and ugly repair for a near-to-dead, hard-beat PSO.

Only the bass notes. I think it is the bridge that has separated although I cannot see the separation.  Anyone have hints as to how I can fix this problem? Most appreciated!
