The most visible differences between a French and a Belgian model are the length of the legs and the placement and shape of the heart.
The longer legs of the Belgian model are presumed to assist with a more powerful sound. But not all instruments will benefit from a Belgian cut bridge. The French model is thought to produce a more balanced and warmer sound. It very much depends on what tone you would like to promote inside your instrument. a brash instrument could benefit from a French Bridge as well as a warm instrument could benefit from a Belgian cut one.
