Hi all,

I'm just wondering what was everyone's preferences for bridge blanks? As in cut and dimensions?

Warmest Regards,
Terence

Hi Terence,

3/8" thick, 1 1/2" wide, 7" long.
These be minimum dimensions.
I'm not overly fussy about dead quarter or not. Grain can lean a bit. Probably better.

Whatcha got?

Steve

Those look amazingly like the Brazilian Rosewood blanks recently stolen from my shop...please return them!

I'm betting those will work just fine I like a finished height of 5/16" so you've got plenty to work with.

Thanks guys. I'm going to keep these guys for the future but will probably try to bring in more stuff to sell on.

I'll try to sort something out with Lance.

Warmest Regards,
Terence.
