So, I've been thinking about bridge/saddles.
With a through bridge the break angle over the saddle is steeper.
On the one hand, the lever arm is shorter. But on the other the twist is greater.
Is it a problem, or a wash?
I ask because I recently bought a uke that I worry will taco at the bridge because it's light, and spruce there, and I'm a little concerned that it might be under built.
If I made it through bridge, i'm not sure if that would be better or worse.
