Replace Rattling Bridge on Eastman T64

[Mark Fowler]

I have an Eastman T64 that has a rattling TOM bridge. I've somewhat overcome this by cutting off bits of foam earplugs and sticking it down into the slots in the bridge on each side of each saddle.

I've heard about using Locktite or clear nail polish or even using wax but I'd rather not go that route.

I'd like a better bridge that does not need have rattles fixed.

Many here have praised the Tonepros bridges so I'm interested in those - but they have so many different TOM models that it is hard to figure out which one I should get. Any advice is appreciated!

Or is there something other than Tonepros that I should consider?

For fun you could try a wood sadle.

I could, but I have that aspect covered with an Eastman AR805 so for this guitar I'm going to go with a TOM.

Thanks!

I have heard some mixed revues of TonePros bridges, and they are expensive. My luthier/repair man sold me on Faber bridges. I got one and it's great. And they offer 3 types of saddles - brass, nylon and titanium. You can go online and see what their specs are. At holiday time, the US distributor has sales offers. I bet that Labor Day weekend will be the next sale.
Wood bridges, while a worthwhile investigation, are not always what is desirable for a particular guitar, or style. I have an older Epiphone TOM that is better than the TOM on my new Gibson. I'm glad they are interchangeable.
