I'm sure this has been discussed ad nauseum here but I could only find one short thread in the archives... Does anyone have any input on using one or the other for a mandolin that is not going to be a "bluegrass cannon"? It'll be more of a classical/jazz type of instrument. By way of full disclosure, there is an aesthetic consideration here also... I bought a set of brushed brass/rosewood button Rubners and they are glorious! If I could match the fretboard and bridge I think I'd like to but not at the cost of tone/volume...
Also, if I do go w/ the RW bridge, are there considerations I need to make concerning top/back thickness or should I carve them the same as I would for an ebony bridge?
