Editorial Review
This is a set of two handcrafted hard maple cigar box guitar bridges, designed by C. B. Gitty specifically for use on "stick on box" cigar box guitars. We call this model the "Flying Bridge" because it goes up an over a standard 3/4" x 1 1/2" cigar box guitar neck, so that the string vibration is transferred down to the box lid, giving much louder volume and better tone than when the bridge rests on the neck itself. These are perfect for 3 and 4-string cigar box guitars, and can be customized with string grooves for any configuration. These are hand-made in the U.S.A - milled and crafted in the C. B. Gitty Workshops in New Hampshire. The approximate dimensions of each bridge is: 4" wide by 1/4" thick by 1 5/16" tall. The neck cutout size is 1 13/16" wide by just over 7/8" tall, which should accomodate a standard 1 x 2 board just fine, especially after i thas been finish sanded. You can of course sand them down as needed if you have different size requirements. These bridges have been rough-sanded and may require a bit more finish sanding to suit your needs. They are also unfinished, and can be treated with linseed oil or other finishes (or painted) as needed. Please note that it can help to put a very thin coating of a rubbery adhesive on the feet of these to help them stay in place on your cigar box, as on smoother boxes they can tend to walk a little bit without something to help hold them in place. We apply a very thin sheen of hot glue, spread it thin and let it dry, before placing the bridge on the box - this allows it to still be movable if needed, while keeping it firmly seated in place when playing. Please note that the photo showing the bridge installed on a cigar box guitar is for reference only.
Features
1) Special design intended for "stick on box" cigar box guitars
2) "Flying Bridge" design bypasses the neck to transmit string vibration down to the box lid
3) Sturdy hard maple construction; designed and made in the USA!
4) Rough-sanded, can be further shaped/smoothed as desired
5) Gives much better volume and tone compared to when the bridge rests on the neck!
