Banjo
Bridge for 5-string banjo
This
is the type of bridge for banjo I use and what I highly recommend. It made a significant
improvement in tone on my banjo when I switched to these banjo bridges, very significant.
They make the less expensive student models sound a lot better too. Adding a better
bridge to your banjo makes a lot of sense. It's a small investment with a big
return. Your tone will improve dramatically. Why put a cheap 5.00 bridge on a
banjo? The bridge is where the tone starts. It's the bridge vibrating on the banjo
head the produces the tone that resonates to your banjo pot. There is no sense
in cutting corners there. I guarantee you'll be satisfied with these, if not,
return it. (Sorry, I sound like the guy on the Men's Warehouse commercial. It's
true though, I guarantee you'll be satisfied or you can return it, no questions
asked.. Thanks, Ross Nickerson
Bridges
come in 4 sizes.
5/8
inch size banjo bridge........This is the most common size and likely what you
have unless you or someone else before you switched it out.
.656.bridge
for banjo .......This is the next size up, it would be good to get one of these.
For instance, if you used a 5/8th bridge and the string action was too low, or
if your string action seems to shift and go down too low sometimes causing your
strings to buzz, (weather can cause slight neck angle shifts) Then you'll have
a backup for that, that is what I do, I keep a higher bridge handy in case I get
any string buzzing.
11/16th 5-string banjo bridge.....This is the size that
most pros use and what I use. Taller bridge to me means a better tone, that's
not to say the 5/8th size doesn't sound good. If you are using a 5/8th bridge
now, and you want to switch to 11/16th, your banjo neck will need to be adjusted,
so consider that when you make this purchase. Adjusting of the neck should be
done by a professional or with great care.
3/4 inch size banjo bridges.......I
also use this size, depending on where my string action is.
