I think you need to try siting the dog closer to the wheel. This will put the chien further over the main soundboard strut and significantly quieten it. The mod can be done without major surgery by temporarily gluing a small block of any hardwood to the soundboard at a distance from the left edge of the chien bridge equal to the width of the existing slot. ( Double sided tape works fine. This will give you an alternate chien position with the right hand edge of the chien against the left edge of the bridge and the left edge of the chien against the temporary block. If still too loud, you can make a separate block with a slot in to accept the chien and experiment with different positions. It is actually useful to do this when siting the chien on a new build as you can easily select the volume required before permanently gluing the bridge in place.

Hi Marc,

I tried that first thing. It had some impact, but not a whole lot. This really is a very loud buzzing bridge compared to some.

Thanks,

Arle
