Acoustic Guitar Repair - My First Bridge Removal

This my first attempt to remove a lifting bridge from an acoustic guitar. It went pretty well. I will show you step by step of the repair. I also glue the bridge back in place and do a setup. I repair and restore old guitars and string instruments from the mid 20th century exclusively. I'll take a discarded, goodwill, flee market find in need of repair and restore it the best I can. I am not a professional Luthier but love to one day master this craft. Exploring new ways of repair and restoration as well as demonstrating traditional lutherie methods.

I wonder why Fender put a massive hole on that D string 🤔
