yep ... purfling line too .... student did it .. same as a guitar body, but you dont need a channel, just glue to the bridge outline (minus the width of the binding and such unless you want the bridge bigger than std) |

You can also glue a thin layer to the bottom. As you shape the side taper it shows as a nice outline. I've done that before, I'd do it again when the design calls for it. In that case it was a maple bridge with an ebony base layer. |
