Re: 1966 450/12 Bridge Replacement
Hello,
This is an update . The Rick bridge I was advised to get and I was told would just lay down on the guitar and be a perfect fit is 3/4 " wide. The openings of the pick guard on my 1966 450/12 are 1/2" wide. Therefore I would need to shave off 1/4 " of the pick guard for a certain length to ...

I think I would prefer a more modern adjustable bridge rather than the original. But who is this Peter you speak of and how can I contact him?

1966 450/12 Bridge Replacement
Hello, I lost the bridge on a 1966 450/12 (12 string) many years ago. It was a three piece assembly. I do have the bottom plate but I'm missing the two top pieces. I really want to get her playing again. I can't find a bridge. I tried Pickofthericks and Rickenbacker to no avail. I know the original ...
