No, not that kind of bridge.
A new bridge for my acoustic ;D.
I recently found out that wooden bridge saddles are much better than the usual plastic ones, and after finding out that my friend paid £35 to have one made, I decided to be a cheapskate and make one myself. ;D
First, I needed to find a suitable hardwood to make it from.
A Rosewood Cello tailpiece from work should do the trick.
Somewhere there is a Cellist rolling in thier grave ;D
Set up my belt sander to get a nice flat edge on it
Behold, a flat edge
Cut a suitable slice
Sand to the right shape
Cut angles for intonation
And shove it in the guitar
