Avoiding Mistakes: How to Glue an Acoustic Guitar Bridge

This is how I glue an acoustic guitar bridge on with any glue. There are of course other good ways, but this is what works for me. I usually use hot hide glue (always on vintage instruments and my own custom builds), however I also use Titebond (redcap) or epoxy depending on the job. The reasons for using a particular glue depends on various things and is info for another video. ALSO: **Make sure the bottom of the bridge matches the radius of the top it is begin glued to. (I mentioned only in passing but it is worth saying again) **Some people use an inner radiused caul on the inside over the bridge plate. I sometimes do but only on certain jobs.
