Super fantastic details. Bridge plays a very important role. Thanks very much. I bought a new uncut bridge today. Your video helped me know the accurate measurements.
MR. Daniel Chen: I just discovered that that you did make a video explaining the distance of the tail piece from the bridge. IT was very clear and I got the answer. Thank You so much
I like your humor and the same time the respect for the instrument. With this combination of humor the myths about violins are not full of the common overdone seriosness ;) I really like that. Hard facts combined with humor :)
HELLO MR. Daniel CHEN, Thank for all the videos made about the violin. After knowing the standard position of the bridge, I have the following question. The length of the gut for the tail piece can be adjusted so that the tailpiece can be closer or further away from the bridge. Is there a requirement of the LENGTH from the back of the BRIDGE to the contact point of the string on the tail piece ?? Will this distance affect the sound ?? Thank You.
Mr. Daniel, I always earned so much from you and your lectures and I want to thank you! Also Happy new year! I just want to share my experience and point out that violin here in the Philippines suffer from having a low fingerboard. As I am selling violin here I noticed that. But the violin that arrived here from China and USA have Good fingerboard height. it is just the weather. and a new arrived violins will tend to bend if the string are tightened... the fingerboard will go down. So I always loosen the string and stock those violin for at least 6 months making it adjust to the weather before selling them. So far so good, my student are not having any problem with low fingerboard. I learned from a costly mistake, I bought 2 violin worth 1k USD one I liked so much the other, well not so much because of the varnish color it was stashed away for months. The one I liked so much got tuned ASAP and with time the fingerboard went down. That was back in 2014 or 15?.(Going to get a neck reset) now the one that got stashed away, remain fine and one of my student is using it right now and the fingerboard is still the same as it came. also the violins that I sold upon arrival suffer the same problem... so now I learned to stash them away for months before selling them.
I just received a new fiddle for Christmas. Is it a good idea to replace the bridge from my older violin if i am not comfortable with the new one? Or should i try to reshape the new bridge instead? It is a little too high for my liking and the strings are closer together.
I have a strange issue. My bridge which I bought today is measuring aprox. 34mm and the height of the fingerboard is around 20 - 21mm But the strings clearance for E string is about astonishingly high 26mm instead of the 3 mm you recommended. What could be causing this? I am unable to tune nor play (obviously) :). Awaiting your advice.
you only bought a bridge material, you need to go to a violin maker to fix it to suit your violin. In Japan the charge of this work costs at least 10000 yen which is 100 USD. thanks
Modest and patient!!!
Very kind teacher!
Just love it!!!

Sir what will happen if we make bridge out of steel? Will it sound better or worse.
What should the heights of the strings d & a be at the fingerboard end?

interesting
lol - My double bass has a clearance less than 8mm! More like 5-6mm. This is a great little series though.
Old vid Daniel ...really good info though :)
no, this is not an old video, it is made before but first time to be posted.

On peut jouer avec les cordes plus rapprochée ? Et quand le pont est plus bas les cordes sont moins rapprochées?

我在网上关注老师您很久了，我也是做小提琴维修的。请问老师您在日本什么地方，是否可以前往拜访或邀请您来中国深圳开展教学合作？
Traduccion al español por favor, gracias
Why would you use a metal ruler on a violin...that hurts
