I have to agree with Simon, as I okay a double flat neck, the bass has spruce top, maple sides and back, a very good bridge, with those "doohickeys" on them, and frankly, my bass got Louder, rang truer, and the harmonics are off the chain!

So to those who dislike the adjustable bridges, from bad experiences, I'd say, find another luithier, and have them hook it up for you.

The problem will always be the change in the sound transmission through the bridge. The moment you add a couple of metal dohickey's to the bridge you
are going to dampen it.

I use the adjustable bridge that Wolfgang Weichselbaumer offers on my 1999 Alto for about half a year now. I did not experience any adititional damping that is more than the damping by the paper I used before.

This minimal damping cant weight out the perfection in pressure balance I can have since. The sound got better in my oppinion. As Matthias Loibner mentioned before the system also allows the bridge to be more relaxed via minimized bending of the bridge due to the systems joints.
