Just received this Favilla U-2,
Decided I needed a soprano for certain songs. It is a sweet sounding uke, however the height of the strings at the 12th fret is about double what I consider acceptable.
I took the bridge off last night and luckily found this idea for a bridge modification which shouldn't be too difficult, even for my somewhat limited instrument building skills:
