Whilst trolling around the web I found this little site www.acousticmasters.com/AcousticMasters_Tech.htmyou will have to search that site for the actual photo's of the said Reso-bridge beast, which I must say does look a trifle Heath Robinson...

It's an interesting idea, but I am concerned about the mass of it damping the cone. I think the general opinion on biscuit bridges is that the lighter and stiffer the bridge is the better it will sound. I'll stick with Paul Norman's carbon fibre bridges.

The Donmo instruments I once saw at the London Reso Center had intonated saddles (for lack of a better way of describing them). Has anyone here a Donmo to hand who can describe or picture the bridge of one?

Hi Colin
The correct word would be compensated .
All that said I seem to recall some pretty great players past and present that managed with the normal Maple and Boxwood bridges. Ive heard one or two Nationals that sound real good just like that,,,

I don't think mine had a compensated bridge, but I dont know what was done to it by the previous owners before I had it. Its currently in ward 5 at the Royal Berkshire, being operated on by Dr King To find pictures (of any kind) use the images search on Google - above the text box the image link. www.google.co.uk/imghp?hl=en&tab=wi&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official_s&q=really good google tool. Try your own name, you'll be surprised what appears sometimes. Think there were 127 pages for Donmo. Including this scary logo.
