I use a modified Martin belly bridge on my guitars as I'm not quite ready to make one from scratch.

I find myself in need of one in Cocobolo with a 1/8" slot and 2 1/4" string spacing.

Is there anyone out there who could quickly make me one?

I could actually provide the 2D shape that we do after we get the belly bridge, or I would be just fine with the standard size/shape.

I've checked with Don Williams - but he's too busy right now.

Thanks

Try to pm NY Tony, who recently posted about his cnc guy making him a bridge.

Sent you a PM with contact info. I happen to be working on bridges right now and could turn it around fast.
