Sources for ebony bridges
Hi all.
I am looking for a good source for standard Martin style ebony bridges.
I have purchased some from Stew Mac and LMI.
Does anyone have a good source other than those?
Thanks

Re: Sources for ebony bridges
Do you have the tooling to make them from blanks? Much more cost effective and satisfying to make.

Never tried. I have all the basic tools. Table saw, drill press, band saw, combo sanders router table, dremels, etc.
Always been kind of afraid of the idea.

Re: Sources for ebony bridges
You can make them easy, you have all the tools.
You can get the blanks probably from John, LMI, Allied, RC Tonewoods, and others.

Re: Sources for ebony bridges
Thanks for the reply.
Your MS ebony bridge appears to be exactly what I am looking for.
The slot angle I have been using on my builds has been 3 degrees.
Is that what this one is?
Thanks
