OP And I know about violin strings not being made from catgut, the gut of cats, that is.
But I've bought several bridges--violin and viola ones, that is. A tangential thought here--why not?--if you look at that bridge, you'll see a man in it with a heart in his center--kind of like those little cartooney-people-fencers tsuwm, if you're reading this, I'm sure you really like the phrase "cartooney-people-fencers" who have hearts on their fencing costumes, whatever you call a fencing costume. What's the word here? But the man, though he has a body and a heart in the string bridge, doesn't have a head. There's a world of meaning in that if you really think about it and music and emotion and all that jazz. (And a bass bridge is a sight to behold!! Wonder how much a high quality bass bridge could cost you? A high quality violin bridge can run $75.00, for the record.)
Best regards,
