I replaced the bridge of my violin with a free size bridge; it was shaped to adjust my violin but turned out to be extra in height. It was then readjusted but since then my bow is always touching other strings. I know it depends on how low the arch is on the bridge where the E string rest. So I was just wondering about the dimension.
What’s the actual height (in mm) of the violin bridge? (If taken from where the G string is placed)If taken from where the E string is placed?
What’s the actual thickness of the bridge? If it differs what’s the approximate thickness it should be (from --mm to--mm)
