ABSTRACT:
Bridge for improving volume, power and sustaining quality in a stringed musical instrument of the type having a hollow body over which are stretched substantially parallel strings, each string being stretched. The string height is raised over the sound board. One end of a string may be anchored to a crossbrace on the underside of the sound board so as to directly vibrate this sound board. It also incorporates a means an adjustment mechanism for string length fine tuning. The result is increased sound, volume and resonance persistence which is without distortion that may result in increased amplification when applied to guitars or other stringed instruments.
