The piz sound, however, didn't changed in the same extent. My teacher ordered one of these bridges for her 100+ years old bass and when she put it on she said that it improved the sound of the instrument. This is my little experience in this wingless bridge. Now i'm working one for the principak bassist in the local Symphony and i'll inform you for his comments.
