Re: Cumberland Acoustic options
I used to have a two foot bridge on my mandolin, but I started to develop a dimple in the top on the inside of the treble foot.
I bought a full contact Cumberland to even out the pressure, and the dimple went away.
I actually like the sound now with the full contact better too.
Seems to have a slightly more full sound.
Regardless of which you buy, a Cumberland is an awesome bridge.
