Martin LXM Bridge Reglue

[Rob Sutton]

Hey Everyone!

I have a little Martin LXM that needs a bridge reglue. I'm wondering what adhesive should be used for the job. The top is made from HPL, and the surface under the bridge is just as smooth as the rest of the instrument. I'm going to trace around the bridge and then scuff up that surface, but I'm uncertain of the adhesive. I was thinking maybe a thick CA, but I'm leaning towards an epoxy. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

I guess I should have dug a bit deeper here. This was very helpful. Thank you!
