I did file down the bridge feet on my old 315 to make it a full contact bridge. Tape down some sandpaper on the top, make sure it's nice a tight. Then just slowly work the bridge back and forth...
Was having a little bit of fun with my buddy's Waterloo, decided to record a little take through this tune on a zoom mobile recorder.

I just drive on down to Fiddler's Green every month or so and stock up! I know they'll be legit D'addario products, and I'm supporting the good folks at that shop, too. Win win!

I'm wondering if I'll even need the reamer. From the measurements, the Gotoh's and Waverly's have the same size bushing requirements. At least, I think they do.
Hey folks. I know there are a lot of threads concerning Waverly, and other tuners. What I have not been able to come across is a person who has done this exact switch, from Gotoh to Waverly tuners....
I talked with Tom and Christian last time I was down there. We were on the topic of X bracing for quite some time. From what I gathered, they hadn't built an x braced mandolin yet. But it appears...
