ok, mando experts, I have two questions.
a) why are mando bridges not anchored to the body the way that a guitar's bridge is?
b) has anybody used those "black diamond" brand strings, the black ones, and if so, what do you think of them? I've never used a coated string before. I got these when I bought my mando and have just put them on. The box says change them when you see silver underneath the black coating. Which I can, after a mere 3 hours of so of playing. (on the upside, they look really freakin' cool on my f-9 which has a bit of black trim).
