The Falcon Bridge

Now offering a new five-footed banjo bridge, precision cut from a single piece of Appalachian hardwood—no rainforest ebony, no glue, just pure organic tone!

Inspired by a forgotten 1899 patent, the Falcon distributes string tension across five contact points instead of the traditional two or three, dramatically reducing sag while improving tone transfer to the head. Pre-Cambered for a true self-leveling design that is extremely resistant to sagging!

Available in a range of domestic hardwoods, each with its own tonal signature! We love this bridge so much that it comes standard on all Pisgah banjo models! The bridge includes a reusable tin to keep in your case for your bridge or pick collection. Click here to learn more about the Falcon Bridge!

Don’t know your bridge height? Use this handy-dandy bridge ruler to quickly and accurately measure your bridge height and string spacing.

Choose maple or persimmon for greater volume, clarity, and sustain; walnut for a warmer, mellower tone with more plunk and a quicker decay; or cherry for a balanced blend of warmth, clarity, and sustain.

 

FALCON:

Flexible – The bridge is cambered on top and flattens under string tension accommodating a variety of string tensions and tunings.

Accurate – Precision cut to consistent tolerance and tonal correctness

Leveling – Self-levels under string tension and maintains optimal head contact over time.

Compensated – Each string’s  vibration length is individually tuned for accurate pitch and intonation

Organic – One piece of Appalachian Hardwood with no glue, synthetics, or shortcuts.

Non-Sagging – Five-footed geometry, a pre-cambered design and quartersawn stability are engineered to outlast convention bridges and resist sagging.
