1950s Gibson LG-3
Hi, I have a 1950's Gibson LG-3 that's had some poor work done to the spruce under the area of the bridge where the spruce has pulled away and or been sanded excessively. It's missing about .020-0.30 thou of spruce and I'm wondering/looking for advice about how to go about splicing in a thin piece of spruce before I re-glue the bridge. Please see pictures attached.
My main questions are: glues for the patch, should the patch be mitered on the ends or inlayed in kind of a "scoopy" method? Maybe by using the angled Stew Mac dremel router base -I have a new old stock bridge replacement and was going to temporarily mark that out and do most of the finish touch up prior to glueing the bridge on. Bridge plate looks good, everything under the bridge is ok, besides the missing spruce. My plan of attack was/is to use the StewMac saddle slotting jig to route down to fresh spruce before glueing in new spruce patch. Am I missing anything? Was thinking of us using hot hide glue for everything.
