I’m not sure if it is adjustable FrankenWashie, the metal seems to be embedded (like a fret). I like the idea of adjustability for intonation with the tone of wood. I’ve been (dangerously) thinking again about creating/inventing my own bridge to sit on top. If have some spare Jarrah I could experiment with - no idea if Jarrah is a suitable timber. Anyhow, half way through my staining.
This is the stock one on my Eastman AR605CE, there’s no adjustment for intonation, without moving the whole bridge.

It’s a nice shaped bridge. Thanks for posting.
Here’s the front, stain applied and the damage done.
Thank you so much FrankenWashie. I know not everyone will like it, I’m cool with that. It doesn’t have the accuracy and precision of a spray painted burst. However, I really like the hand applied look. I like the spray painted version also.

By the way, if the stain runs over the label it washes off the printed stain colour. Pour away from labelling.
Looks great, between that burst and the bridge this is shaping up nicely!
Thanks VonScott. The bridge in my diary is the stock bridge which comes with the kit.
I have yet to attempt a burst, sprayed or otherwise, so your hand rubbed effort is blowing my tiny little mind. Your build is about what you want to craft. I can’t see many here having an issue with how that’s coming out. I just can’t wait to see a gloss clear over that.
