    • Carefully remove any excess glue or debris on the body of the guitar from the old bridge.

    It's a good idea to scrape any excess glue so that you get a straight wood to wood glue bond from both the bridge and soundboard. A chisel or carving knife is good for this job.

This is a good guide Mitchell. I would encourage anyone attempting this type of a job to go watch some of the videos on YouTube by Mr. Ted Woodford. He goes into great detail about the various pitfalls of removing bridges, they aren't always as simple. Personally I don't think this repair is something to be classified as 'easy' as well. Different guitars can have very very tough adhesive bonds. I had to remove a Taylor bridge once that was a bear to get off and ensure that it went back on cleanly. The bridge can also warp and deform once it comes free of the top, so it's a good idea to clamp the bridge to a known flat surface. I appreciate the steps you outlined here though.
