I swapped bridges tonight on my 1980 Bellflower. It had a Huber 5/8 standard spacing. I replaced it with a Snuffy Smith 9/16 with Crowe spacing. First impression: the SS might be a nice match, it sounds a bit mellower and the height difference gives a slightly looser feel. Plus, the Crowe spacing feels great. Wonder what it'll feel like tomorrow.
