Just bought a used Sigma 000M 1st Guitar. A previous owner had pushed the bridge pins in too far. Wanting to fit a new set of strings I had to use pliers to remove the pins, most of the pins then broke. What a 'dogs job' I am having trying to get replacements.
Looked on ebay and most suppliers seem to think that all pins are standard (I used to think so too until this). Some give dimensions but they don't match mine. Any body else out there had this problem?
I have had acoustic guitars for 30 + years and changed countless sets of strings, but never experienced this 'problem' before.
