Thanks Maude, good to know.

Actually, I did find that thread, but the model looked too early to be of any relevance. On reflection though 🙂

Hey thanks JJ. It looks earlier than mine, but good to see what an original bridge might look like.

Hi, newbie here! I was at an auction waiting for an Epiphone LP to come up, when, before that, an Antoria Twin Caster Bass appeared, which I ended up getting for a song. It has a broken tuner (which I can fix), no bridge, and it's missing the bushings on all but one tuner. I'm not a bass player, so I'd appreciate some advice. Does anyone know what the original floating bridge would have looked like? I haven’t been able to find any pictures anywhere. I found a bridge in pic 2 and was wondering if it might be a good fit? It seems to be from the right era and is Japanese made. Also, any ideas on where the bridge should be positioned? Oh, and finally—could someone recommend a medium-priced set of suitable strings, please? 🙂
