Yes it was an original idea,specialy designed for Pete`s banjo`s. The only 2 that were ever made both ended up on Pete`s banjo`s. It has been copied and probably still is today. I`ve been thinking along those same lines but with my own twist to the design.
There were only 2 of those banjo bridges made for pete, one on his 5 string and one on his long neck 5 string. Hre`s more info on that history made bridge..http://banjobridge.com/stu.htm. I saw Pete play at the Philafolk festival back in the 80`s. He had that long neck banjo with that one of a kind bridge.
