Reply to 2006 Martin 000C-16GTE Neck Reset Question- M&T
I haven’t checked his book, but one thing I like to do is take that insert out, throw one in with a little more bite to the threads and put it in with epoxy. I also cap over the end of the tenon with hard wood and then drill a hole only big enough for the bolt to get trough into the insert. This will prevent the insert from pulling out and you…

Hey Ian- It is! It has the single bolt. I don’t think the bolt was or is failing though., I tried tightening it but nothing moved. It wasn’t loose. The heel does have a slight gap..

Unless the footprint is way different I think a 40s bridge would be fine on there. I think he can send them to you sans saddle slot and pin holes too. I would guess that if you needed over size, he could bang thst out . Worth asking, cuz every other repro bridge is gross.
