I'd like to build an electric sitar and was wondering if anyone knew of an aftermarket "buzz bridge" like the one on a Coral/Jerry Jones Sitar.

Otherwise, anyone have an idea how I could make on from scratch?

Thanks
Roger

There's a lot of good info on sitars here:

couldn't find anything on electric sitars on that site. this is something i'm looking to do soon as well. going to start researching the coral/JJ sitars soon and start plotting one out since my telecaster is finally almost done.

I've never made one but Mrs blood made a couple.I think she just made a rosewood block to go forward of the bridge then slowly sanded it down to the proper buzz. I'll ask her

i saw some 'sitar' saddles for a tele bridge(3 piece) a while back-they were squareish in shape and looked to be made of brass...i was interested,but got distracted. wish i could remember who makes(or made)them.

Those tele saddles are what I'm looking for. They're made by Rockinger in Germany, but I can't translate their website to order them. I hoped someone could tell me of an American version, or an American distributor for them.

well,this is a stretch but you might check ebay-i just remembered that's where i saw the picture of them. there was a link to the auction in a thread discussing them at the TDPRI(this was about a year ago)...maybe someone who hangs there knows more about how to get them.
