Location: Northern Virginia | Anybody ever have this happen? This guitar never leaves my home and stays in it's hanger on the wall. Last night I noticed the area under the bridge was kind of bubbled, and then this morning I looked at the guitar and said, "Wow, my B string broke!" as I saw it was hanging loose. Then I looked down and saw the entire bridge was lifted up and hanging by a very thin hinge on the string side. This was a limited production run on the U681T's. Just curious if anyone else has seen this happen. I've got a call into John Budny. |

| Mine's OK. That's a real killer. But don't worry - John and the guys will make it better than new. |

Lenny, sorry to it... I can't recall a bridge lifting on ANY Adamas. Where you been hiding? ... Though, living near me, I can understand you offering a well considered answer... |

Location: Phoenix AZ | Hopefully the bridges and braces are popping off in sequential order. Mine was one of the last ones built.

My $100 beater Matrix bridge is still hanging in there, although I don't play it much anymore. I'm still scared to touch it! |

The bridge popped off my U681T!
