I just received 2 vintage pyramid bridges from Birkonium They are fantastic. I could not ask for better bridges. No routing lines, no sand marks. Perfect.
The ones I have received previously, from other vendors, always had routing lines that I had to sand out. Sanding the pyramids is very difficult. Not necessary on these.

Thanks,
Andy

Fourth it. He does my necks and fretboards. Always minimal sanding and fit is perfect. He did 5 belly bridges for me last month and same thing, minimal sanding. Andy does great work.

I've had trouble getting responses from Andy over the last few weeks. Is anyone hearing from him lately?
