I cut a piece of aluminum from a turnbuckle.
Shaped it to fit, drilled the holes for height adjustment and cut the slots for the saddles.
A piece of Corian was cut into an extruded T shape for making saddles.
Saddles were cut and shaped from the corian.
This is a close approximation of the pictures I found online. I had 3 more to do I could get it perfect.

ReplyDeleteI am currently restoring a 1967 Hofner 499 12 string with a very similar bridge/saddle and I have a few questions you might be able to answer. How might I contact you? Daniel Nero mardeeda@gmail.com phone:215 3903 828
