Regluing Taylor bridges and others with embedded electronics
I was recently asked to do some set up work on a Taylor GS Mini when I noticed the bridge beginning to lift at the back corner on the treble side. The pickups/electronics are mounted through the bridge plate and bridge, which is not something I've dealt with before and I'm wondering about how you all approach bridges like this. Any tips, tricks, warnings, etc.
Would you tend to remove the bridge and reglue (if so, how nightmarish is it dealing with the electronics?), clean up as best you can and wick new glue in, or some other approach?
This specific guitar is not in my hands anymore, though I may wind up being the one doing the work, depending on what the customer decides. For now I let them know about the issue and that it will need to be addressed, to keep string tension off of it until they decide to get the work done, etc. So for now, my question is less about this specific case and more about how you deal with Taylor bridges and others that have bedded electronics. Thanks for any thoughts.
