As you may have read from the other page, I bought a Dave Grohl semi hollowbody guitar with the headstock broken off. Here’s my plan for it.
In the photo you can see it has a black bridge on the guitar. That’s my plan in a nutshell. I think it will be less involved than reworking the headstock onto the guitar, adding splines for reinforcement and all that jazz. This way, I can make a mounting sled (plate out of aluminum probably), drill some holes that line up with the mounting points for the Gibson bridge and tailpiece already in the guitar, get the sled mounted to the Guyker WT001 bridge. I’m sure I’ll figure all that out. In the meantime, I’ve mocked the sled and bridge up in CAD. On the sled I put the holes for the bridge and tailpiece screws in the correct spots, added registration marks so I can center the Guyker bridge and an arrow so I know what side is facing the neck.
There are mounting holes in the sled, this will be a 3D printed mockup so I can get all the dimensions correct before I cut a piece of aluminum. I’ve also approximated 3 holes in the bridge mockup, but I’m not sure where they are–I’m assuming there’s 3 holes and I won’t know until I have one in my hands.
