Neapolitan Bridge : ‘Loveri’

   This is a hand-made replacement bridge in ebony and brass, to fit old bowlback Neapolitan mandolins, and is based on an existing bridge on a Loveri bowlback.

   It is 110mm long, 8-9mm tall before fitting, and 6-7mm wide. The brass saddle is approximately 50mm long and 2mm diameter. The string slots have a spread of 38-40mm. It will suit required bridge heights of  4-8mm.

   It will need to be fitted, but comes with a slightly curved foot, to begin fitting to the domed Neapolitan top. String slots may be cut, but I will need to know string spread and gauges to be used.
