Re: Height of BRIDGE: Higher = Louder/more Tone??

You really have to measure the breakover angle of the strings from the tailpiece to the bridge to get the true idea of the tension. If you are just trying to compare bridge height, you need to measure how far the strings are from the face of the instrument.
So you're saying higher tension equals louder volume not string/bridge height?
