The Hub

I have a Favilla Classical guitar on the bench, in for a bridge reglue. This is a low to mid-range classical guitar, made circa 1960, and it's an heirloom guitar for the customer, he basically wants it back in playing shape. The story is that he went away on vacation, and when he returned the bridge had delaminated from the top and took a fair amount of finish with it. It also appears that someone attempted to glob on superglue at some point towards the back of the bridge, which I have begun removing. I have a few questions on this:

1. Is there a universally accepted way of positioning a bridge/saddle on a classical guitar? The middle of the saddle on this one appears to have been placed at exactly the scale length (25.125") without compensation.

2. I have planed the underside of the bridge and have made it flat rather easily. The area on the body however where the bridge is placed, has a distinctive bulge which I've tried to illustrate. I'm wondering what the approach should be here?

3. Once issues 1 & 2 have been resolved, then comes the question of touching up the finish (assuming I have the order of operations correct). The original finish appears to be nitrocellulose lacquer, and I was considering tinting a nitrocellulose lacquer and brushing it on. This may be an unorthodox approach since I never see anyone brushing on lacquer, but I do like the idea. Thoughts on this approach would be appreciated, as well as how you would approach it personally.

Thank you!
