Aubert À Mirecourt Deluxe Cello Bridge #18L – 90mm ‘French’ Style
The Aubert À Mirecourt Deluxe #18L represents the pinnacle of bridge craftsmanship. Made in France from the finest aged maple, the "Deluxe" is Aubert's top-tier professional grade, designated by the iconic brand stamp. This 90mm French pattern bridge is "treated," a proprietary process that enhances the wood's natural acoustic properties, ensuring maximum sound transmission from the strings to the top plate of your cello.
Angkor Music Luthier Insight
The bridge is the most critical tonal component of your cello. At Angkor Music, we recommend the Aubert Deluxe for professional setups because of the density and grain of the wood. The "treated" maple in the #18L model is significantly harder than standard bridges, which prevents the wood from dampening the vibrations. This results in a clearer, more resonant, and more powerful projection. The 90mm foot width is a standard French measurement, providing a stable foundation that suits most full-size performance instruments.
Professional Setup Required
This is a "blank" bridge and must be carved, fitted, and thinned by a professional luthier to suit the specific arching and fingerboard height of your cello.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install this bridge myself?
We strongly recommend against self-installation. A bridge blank requires precise carving of the feet to match the cello's top, and the top arch must be shaped to the correct string height. Incorrect fitting can damage the instrument's finish or even cause a crack.
What is the difference between French and Belgian bridges?
French bridges, like this Aubert Deluxe, generally have a shorter "heart" and longer legs, often producing a warmer, more rounded tone compared to the brighter, more aggressive Belgian style.
Does "Treated" mean it is stained?
No, the treatment is an acoustic process designed to harden the wood fibers and enhance the sound. While it may result in a slightly darker wood color, its primary purpose is tonal improvement.
