Gibson SB300 Bridge

Kid Kilowatt · #1 02-11-2007, 11:08 PM

Looking for a suggestion of where to find or how to replace or repair a bridge for a SB300. The plastic saddles on my have broken just due to age and does not appear the piece where the saddles are located was designed to just be replaced as opposed to repaired. Any thoughts or suggestions or anyone with one they are looking to part with?

can you post a pic of the bridge in question? I didn't think the plastic saddles weren't being used at the time the sb300 was made.

Note how there is not any easy way to remove the screws holding the saddles without filiing them off and replacing them, which appears to be the only option.

I would ask the guys with the Gibson knowledge at any of these forums:
