These came back to me as a rejected few from a big order, so I'm dumping them on you lot for cheap.

From my web site -

To my knowledge, these are the only "true" 4-sided pyramid bridges available out there. Each of these has a very minor chipout on the front-right and rear-left as shown in the picture. There are 28 of these available and when they are gone, they are gone.
<p>
Saddle width is .125" and string spacing is 2.25". Overall dimension is 6" x 1".

I think these'll last about an hour, so if you want some, click here now.

Just out of curiosity John .. are they 28 foot radiused onthe bottom - that is a problem I had with the stew mac ones - they are flat - no good to me anyway.

I might have to get you to make me some from other wood ... will let you know

Good question, Tony. They are not radiused. However, they have a .09" tall pedestal as opposed to the other guy's .04", so there is plenty enough room to radius the bottom without jeopardizing the shape.

Here's the math to show how much room there is. The yellow line is a 28' radius.

The issue I have John is at the transition to the pryamid area - once you radius the bottom, that will not be the same thickness as the outer edge where you dont sand off any, or extremely little. I know its not much, but you would see it IMO ...

Post subject: 
Quite possible, my friend. BTW, the thickness difference is .007" if you're curious.

John,
Don't be offended but all I can afford would be $15 ea.
I would buy 4. and you pay the shipping.

I'm not offended, Walter, but wrong venue.

These won't be discounted any further.John Watkins39095.673275463

John...did my order on Jan 13 come through? I PayPal'd it and it cleared, but no confirmation has come back.
Just checking.

Thanks
