Half-moon bridges by Randy Stockwell submitted 3/21/2008 Submitter Richard Dress Where Purchased Randy Stockwell Overall Comments I've used the Stockwell Moon Bridge for decades with great success both on my archtop and on my flat-top to cure intonation problems. They are the best compensated bridge on the market. But a weird thing happened: I recently tried Black Diamond strings and had to go back to a straight bridge on both my banjos. Can anyone explain that? Overall Rating 10
