Step 5Making the bridge
I cut the bridge in a piece of hardwood cleat.
The guitar saddle is cut to length and its side glued on the bridge.
On this peculiar prototype, the bridge is about 1/2" or less. Best height is obtained by trial.
I've tried several possibilities and it appeared that 3 legs bridges work best... At your convenience...
You can find 4 strings banjo bridges on the net, also.
Make slots to hold the strings using a thin filler. Be very careful at this point. Slots should fit the strings exactly for a better sound.
