Deering Smile banjo bridge is made to adjust to the natural curve on a banjo head when under string tension, alleviating the stress found in traditionally-built flat-bottomed bridge. The result is less bridge constriction, enhanced low-end and midrange frequencies, and a better overall balance from string to string. Specifically designed to fit 5-string banjos with a 5/8″ bridge height, bridge is maple with ebony top.
