Lifting bridge :: Bedell TB-30-G [5.0 lbs]
The bridge was peeling away from the top, so it was removed, refit and re-glued with hot hide glue. A small back crack running from the neck block to the first brace was also repaired.

Bridge re-glue :: Bedell TB-28-G
This bridge was lifting so it was removed, refit and re-glued. Before re-gluing, the area around the bridge was wet sanded and buffed to remove some super glue remnants from a previous repair attempt. Next up will be finishing up a back crack repair (coming off the corner of the neck block) and it should be ready to head back out.
Failing bridge :: Bedell TB-28-G
Here's a bridge that should be fairly easy to remove. Just need to break the remaining bond, clean, fit and re-glue. I was told that some superglue was used at one point so it should be interesting once the bridge is pulled.
