I had a custom Bonzanzalele made some months back. I wanted something halfway between a banjo sound and an uke, and sound wise its perfect. However I quickly stopped playing in frustration due to an issue with the bridge, and haven't touched it in months.
I am not a particularly hard strummer, but I can't go more than a few measure sinto a song before the A string pops out of the bridge and shifts half the distance between it and the C string. Thoughts on how to deal with it?
The bridge is definitely in the correct spot (you can seen the marks on the uke head to line it. None of the other strings have a problem. My thought is the notch in the bridge might be too narrow or too shallow. Anyone else have an issue like this with a banjo uke or a Bonanzalele?
