BlownCorona Posted September 18 Author Share Posted September 18 Third and final update for today, my custom one off bridge came in and boy am i stoked. this was the right choice and i love it. the surface finish wasn't super polished before plating (because i didnt pay for that) but its really only notible on these close up photos, im 95% sure i will leave it as supplied and once furnished will hardware and strings it will all just look pretty and remain a real center piece to the instrument. Gosh i love it. My 5 year old daughter who loves making noise with me (little digital drum kit) just about died from adoration of the cartoon. As you can see the adjustment screws are too long. this is just what i had on hand. i also need to clearance drill and tap all of the adjustment threads and source some M2.5 brass grub screws, probably from aliexpress. I think ill leave them "as cast/printed" on their own they look a bit rough but next to all the shiny the contrast really works. i also will paint the two recessed bolt areas with black wrinkle, which was always the plan but does happen to be where the machining marks are that i wouldn't have been happy to live with, win win. you can also see the four holes for the mute pad kit, which you can buy from Music Man... if you live in america... didnt notice that part before i included it. It remains to be seen wether i fork out for freight forwarding the kit or make my own. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
