WTB original wrap around bridge for original Gibson 1957 LP tv yellow special

My wraparound has ridges for the strings that someone must have cut - anyone know if these can be fixed somehow? Just a little bit too much buzzing at the action I like. Else I'd like to try and get an original one if they aren't silly money rather than a repro to keep the guitars value.

    Same thing happened to my 56 Special. I’d put a Mojoaxe or Faber compensated wrap tail on it, put the original in the case and enjoy the better intonation and string definition those modern solutions give you!

    It’s not something that will affect the value unless the guitar is a near mint collector grade example IMO.

    Yes, that sounds much cheaper and a better option!
