The Maple Leaf Strings Adjustable 3/4 Bass Bridge Blank with brass fittings is an unfitted bridge blank designed for luthiers and repair technicians to carve and fit to an individual 3/4 size double bass. Featuring an adjustable brass mechanism for height adjustment, this bridge blank provides a reliable foundation for proper setup and ongoing tone and playability adjustments on full-size 3/4 bass instruments.
Product Overview
A bridge blank is an uncarved or partially carved bridge that must be fitted by a luthier to the specific top arching, string spacing, and setup requirements of an individual instrument — ensuring optimal sound transfer, proper string height, and correct intonation. The adjustable brass mechanism built into this bridge blank allows for height adjustment after fitting, giving players and technicians the ability to fine-tune string height and playability over time without requiring a full bridge replacement.
Brass adjusters are a durable and widely trusted choice for adjustable bass bridges, offering smooth and reliable height adjustment that holds steady under the substantial string tension of a double bass. This 3/4 size blank is sized appropriately for the most common double bass body size, making it a practical choice for luthiers and repair shops working on standard 3/4 instruments.

- Luthiers and repair technicians fitting a new bridge to a 3/4 size double bass
- Bass players who want the ability to adjust string height for seasonal changes or evolving playing preferences without a full bridge replacement
- Repair shops stocking adjustable bridge blanks for common double bass setup and maintenance work
- Anyone replacing a damaged, warped, or poorly fitted bridge on a 3/4 size double bass
