Titebond or Epoxy

Post by Zen »

I'm gluing on a bridge on a cheap Hondo acoustic that appears to have a laminated top and was wondering if you guys would go with strong Devcon Epoxy {2500 strength} or Titebond original.

Its a 12 string and the bridge had lifted at one end so I took it off and cleaned up the area ready to glue the bridge back on.

Any advise much appreciated

If the contact is good and tight between the top and the bridge TB would be fine. If the fit is sloppy or the top is all chippy under the bridge go with an epoxy.
