I'd msg @Andyjr1515 for his take on the matter, and glue choice. Its a crack rather than a break, so no real alignment and angle issues, plus a nice bit of extra volute wood for strength in the vacinity... ASAP While the tension is still on, some titebond(?) or most suitable - be nice and warm and runny this weather - to wick in all the open gap. Rather than looking to open the gap again for the glueing. Then off with the tension and a good clamp... (i've seen inner tubes wrapped around things, then pumped up to apply conforming pressure if no decent clap and packing) - how long? 48hrs? As mentioned previously, no lacquer finish, so a little bit of sanding, wire wool 0000 to remove any glue ooze and a dab of oil or wax!

Individual Bridges... never look neat to me.

Depends what there vibe is... Best place to start but not a starter bass... 2nd hand Ibby SR300! - £160ish? Love 'em and love passive modding 'em. +1 on the HB PB50 - great as they are, at the price point they make for a loverly little personalisation tinker project, ideal for a dining room table over a few winter nights... 😉 Had a fun time modding mine. I've seen some basic Yams criminally cheap but i just don'g like the look compared to the Ibby

Dead?.. Sure its not just a wire break, where you can undo a wind a re-solder to the eyelet? Worth a close look.

Dunlop Nylon, 1mm Don't like the powdery feel of the tortex material, and they are too stiff for the thickness.

A P with Blocks?.. Pair of Pups?.. Curiouser and curiouser said Alice...

New... from Earnie's Balls...

My Epi T Bird has a bridge like this as std... Functional, but I think the 3 Point is more characterful.
