ORIGINAL: Tom Blackshear Then why does it interest you to get on this list and tell me how to make bridges or any design that you are not willing to do yourself. The very fact that you condescend like this tells me you have little to nothing constructive to offer, and you have no idea how complicated this bridge is to build. I have the LMI bridge to compare it with, and you seem to offer nothing but condescending remarks, that frankly, show me that you are struggling to make grand impressions but have no real understanding of the facts. The bridges cost me money and if you want one, then pay for it. And If you don't, then that's another story. Charles, I'm up for a good story regarding your past history but I'm not terribly interested in hearing about things that get distorted over the Internet with mental oneupmanship. As far as I know, this is the first commercial try at this style of bridge and it is an educated style that is now available to anyone who is tired of building their own bridges. I know that I am, and I think there are quite a few builders out there who wouldn't mind having a well made Spanish style bridge to use for their guitars. And when you say "And even if I were interested, would you really expect me to pay you $50.00 to send me something that you want me to copy? That just doesn't make any sense". I don't think you are paying attention. I offered to pay you $300 for 25 bridges that you said you could build easy with your system that would compare to my design. A $300 return on a $50 investment seems to be a fairly good profit :-) Huh??? What the f***??? Lighten up, old boy. No need to get your shorts in a bunch. They're just freakin' guitar bridges fergawdsakes. And before you, of all people, say that anyone has nothing constructive to offer or of being condescending you should go back and read a few of your own posts.
