I've located the bridge. A few minimal scratches but string through body only which may present a new challenge
PM me if you want it your more than welcome. I've had it sitting around for at least 8 years!

Is it rather like the chrome three saddle top strung bridge Waz showed in his mock-up photo?Originally Posted by dave.king1
Didn't look through the thread just noticed an off of a strung through bridge and offered the alternative that I have spareIs it rather like the chrome three saddle top strung bridge Waz showed in his mock-up photo?
Cheers guys for the offers of a bridge.
@ Ponch, I have a similar one that I tried on the Blue Tele and not too keen to attempt string through as that looks the best way for that style to work. Tried to use it rear loaded and the string angles were all wrong and played havoc with intonation.
@ Dave, I now 2 x PBG 3 saddle style Bridges and was almost going to have another attempt but ordered another 6 saddle one from Real Parts this afternoon which has sides folded up like an old ash tray design. Here it is on Bluey...

Beginning of the dark & sinister side project......
Bunch of DB's 0000 steel wool from a luthier kit cut up and placed in a jar with 2 cups of white vinegar. In the 2nd Jar we have 10 Liptons Black Tea Bags infusing in 1 litre of boiling water.

Amazing what quick work 80 grit paper makes of this sanding job....
Started sanding the body but as I started late in the day ran out of daylight and the lamb roast was ready for carving.
