Default Source for ebony mustache style bridge??

This bridge on a washburn is giving me hives trying to find one. It is ebony, I had one but had to use it. I found one on eBay by a fluke. Anyone have a good source that may have one of these style bridges. I have found rosewood, but nothing in ebony, I suppose I could make one, but that is a lot of work! The one guy at Washburn that would know, never answers his phone, or returns calls. I'm sure he's swamped!

You'll probably have to make one. That shape is kind of outside the norm in terms of what is available as replacements from most major manufacturers.

He was referring to himself as he helped me out with one that he had.

I understand. I was trying to get him to give out his email if he makes bridges or similar, maybe get some business.
