I need to glue the bridge on my classical guitar. I built the guitar with Titebond but Im not sure if i can trust it at the bridge .Due to import problems I have the choice of Titebond, CA, or West epoxy. Its Eir on spruce. Interested to know which one you would go with. Thanks |

Titebond will be fine. I use HHG, but since you used titebond for the rest of the guitar I'd use it for the bridge too. Make sure there's no finish on the top under the bridge and I'd recommend sanding the bottom of the bridge right before you glue it to remove any oxidation. This goes for any glue. |

I use fish glue on builds and cascamite on repairs or araldite when I can't remove all the old glue |
