Dale, You are probably aware that Andre Bolduc sells pinblock and bridge cap material. I ordered some maple Bolduc bridge cap material from Pianotek Supply, and I was extremely happy with what they sent. It was quite expensive, but the quality was better than I expected. Granted, I have only made a few bridges and never recapped a bridge yet, but Bolduc bridge cap material worked well when I made a new bass bridge last year. It was truly quartersawn, and seemed to have a nice tight grain. Sincerely, David A.
