    Hi,
    I am a newbie guitar player and I bought an Ariana acoustic guitar 6 months back.Lately. i noticed that the guitar's bridge has risen at an angle (it makes an angle of about 10 degrees with the base of the guitar). I went to the shop (Bharat Music house) and they are asking for a repair fee of Rs. 400 (inspite of the warranty). I no longer trust them and want to know from where can I get it fixed at a reasonable price. And what would be the reasonable price?. Also does a raised bridge has an adverse impact on my guitar playing experience?.. Thanks in advance!!

    Bharat sucks serious ass man... One of the worst shops I've ever gone to, I wouldn't shop there if you paid me.

    You can try out Onstage Music or Furtado's at Lajpat Nagar... They'll do it for a lot less, since it's a pretty minor fix.

    Made some progress..need more help

    Hi,
    I was able to remove the bridge from the guitar. However, in the process, I think I damaged some of it. I have attached the images of the guitar and I have highlighted the damage with black rings. Kindly have a look and tell me if the guitar is damaged now.
    Also please tell me how to proceed further in repairing it.
    Thanks in advance..
