Is your violin bridge leaning or warping?

The bridge is the shaped wooden part that supports the strings above the violin’s body. Check its position when tuning.

When to get help

Pirastro advises checking bridge position during string changes. If it leans, looks distorted or its feet no longer sit properly, ask a luthier to inspect it. Do not force it upright or reshape it yourself.
