Replacement bridge for EB2?

[Nuclearfishin]

Does anybody know where I can get a bridge which will fit a 1965 Gibson EB-2? I've seen some original replacements on E-bay for around $200, but I'd like to replace it with something which allows me to adjust the action and intonation. Obviously I don't want to drill any holes but surely somebody must make an aftermarket bridge that will fit. I heard Schaller made a 460 which fit but they quit making them years ago and I can't find one for sale.

Any help?

Thanks, I've been to that forum and registered multiple times but it won't let me post until the moderator activates my account. I think they must be asleep at the wheel because I've tried several times to register and have waited with no response. I'm not sure what gives...

BTW, both times I've registered and waited several weeks before trying again.

I actually just registered to the 'dudepit.com' one today, it let me log in right away-

It went right from the login to being logged in- there was no email confirmation or seperate login.

Try posting something and see if it works. I also can log in, but when I try to post it says 'waiting for administrator to activate account'.

Let me know if you get the same thing or if it's just me. Thanks!

Thank you, I guess I must have registered right around the same time they were rolling out their new software update.

Cheers!
