Well I wasn't wanting a Tune-o-matic particularly but it was the only one I could find that was 2" wide, and even then it goes just over 2". I found a Jag bridge that was 2-3/16" but I didn't want to run the risk of the strings not fitting the width of the fretboard. I'm getting a nec...

Hi again I've started work and I'll try and snap some pictures and start a new thread soon. All I've done so far is sand the body but I'm having a bit of trouble finding a 2" wide bridge with a 14" radius, would you be able to link me to where you got your parts? And I think you mentioned ...

A friend suggested putting it in the original pocket and then just filling the gap and sanding the lower side down. If I'm not that bothered about the look of the join would the way you've currently got it connected suffice for the time being? When you bolted it on I assume you drilled new holes lik...
