Violin Bridge Setup Last Updated: 02/23/2022 |
||
Your Cricket Violin was shipped de-tuned but with the bridge standing up. If the bridge has fallen or is out of place, it can be easily re-positioned. Its proper place is standing up feet in line with the notches on the crescent sound holes; numbered side perpendicular to the top and facing the tailpiece. The strings may have to be loosened slightly to get it to stand up. All strings should be placed in the appropriate grooves on the top of the bridge with a sleeve under the E string as shown in the picture. Center the bridge so that strings are equally spaced on either side of the fingerboard when looking straight down on the top. Each bridge is numbered according to size and must be referenced when reordering. Make sure the sound post is visible standing up inside, behind the treble foot of the bridge centered on the marks on the back.
