Greetings all,
I had a fluke ukulele for many years and the bridge finally came loose. Unfortunately I attempted to reglue it and it didn't take. So I had to pull it back off again and subsequently splintered a portion of the top where the bridge glitches on. (See attached photograph)
I want to glue it back on properly with clamps etc., but now that there are splinters in gaps On the top, I'm wondering is there something I can use to fill that area that would bond to the wood before I glue the bridge down so I get a good bond. Or is there a different kind of glue I can use so that it holds.
I am hoping that the top isn't damaged beyond repair, but any help would be appreciated,
Thanks,
Joel
