BRIDGE FOR STRINGED INSTRUMENTS ABSTRACT The present invention relates to a bridge for stringed instruments. While the bridges of the prior art are effective in reducing the ability of the drums to vibrate, substantially increasing the tone sustaining capabilities of each string over that obtainable thereto- fore, it has been found, in practice, to be inconvenient to construct a bridge assembly to conduct the strings into contact with the bolts connecting the drums to the base member. It is an object of the present invention to overcome the shortcomings encountered with such bridges. In accordance with the present invention, there is pro- vided an improved bridge for stringed instruments of the type including a base member, a plurality of drums, and means connecting the drums to the base member in end-to- end relationship for independent lateral movement in two orthogonal directions to separately adjust the length and height of each string. The strings are conducted into engagement with the drums so as to apply an axial force to each of the drums to urge all of the drums axially into contact with each other and the first drum into contact with a fixed abutment on the base member.
