  See John Hartman's "the effects of Down bearing on  tone"  In the middle of 
1995. 4 months worth of  very informative articles  & also a description of 
how to set bearing  using a very old tried & true method of setting bearing. I 
think it's  important to ask qusetions about something as complex as bearing & 
tone but  just as neede is to read such  articles like this that will shorten 
your  /my learning curve.
   A wealth of information exists in  Journal  resources that cover the 
questions being raised here. I personally  read  all 5 yrs worth of Nick Gravagnes 
articles at  least three times before I ever installed a board, As well as 
Del's, Jack  Kreftings & others.

If my theory is correct, then bridge height would
probably also be a  significant factor in tone, as it
would also have marked effect on the  mechanical
advantage the string has as it vibrates.
Has anyone studied the effect of bridge height on
tone, all else being  equal?
