TG,
Something not mentioned about bridges is that they can be dyed. I am in the process of building a guitar with an Ebony fingerboard - but I want a lighter bridge on the guitar - I took one of East Indian Rosewood I had on hand and have dyed it black to match the ebony.
Most Ebony I'm ordering now has some significant grain to it - so for this guitar I also dyed the fingerboard.
They both match very nicely.
You get the best of both worlds this way.
