Replacement Bridge for Ovation Celebrity

This is as close to a drop on replacement for an Ovation Celebrity bridge as you will find. The only modification that I had to make was to drill a single hole for the active piezo pickup.

The original Ovation bridge had split length-wise along the top loading slot on the backside of the bridge. I installed longer bridge screws than the two originals so that the screw heads with a washer are now on top the bridge. This bit of re-engineering should keep the bridge from splitting again.

I opted to use CA Gel glue to apply the new bridge directly to the factory finish as was also done originally by Ovation.

Note: this bridge is 1/4" shorter than the Ovation original but it has exactly the same profile (shape) as the original.

Excellent value and quality.

I bought this bridge because I am making a 6 string acoustic cigar box guitar. I needs something that was aesthetically pleasing as well as the ability for top mounted strings with no pegs. This also has two holes pre-drilled that will allow me to glue and screw the bridge to the soundboard. I couldn't ask for more at that price.Read full review

Nice and Strong!!

I got this to replace a flimsy bridge on a 3/4 scale Gretsch Americana guitar that broke after my kid tightened the strings just a tad much. This one is a very strong bridge, a nice hardwood piece with a beautiful, natural look. I didn't feel the need to finish it but a coat of clear lacquer would really make it pop.

It was perfectly flat on the bottom, no warpage which made it easy to glue down.

High Quality Replacement

I am very pleased with this replacement bridge. Ovation made their original ones too thin, and as a result tend to break under tension. This manufacturer addressed the issue by making one that is a bit thicker, and feels heavier/sturdier.

Other than the increased thickness, the other dimensions are spot on, matching the original almost perfectly.

Rosewood Top Loading Acoustic Bridge

Item is thicker than the original bridge which raises the strings a little bit higher. The original was made too thin and they all had a tendency to break. This one is better in that aspect.

top load bridge looks great and functional

I was delighted that the new bridge matched the fret board of the guitar. It's an older guitar that this is installed on. It was the best to match the original bridge.

Good finish guitar bridge

Most bridges you have to drill 6 holes through the guitar to install this product you don.t you feed the guitar strings through the top without pegs holding the strings in through the body of the guitar. Read full review
