Bridge is polling up?

I have an Arvarez (Acoustic) and the bridge is pulling up, what can I do to fix it?, It's a cheaper guitar but its my best player and I don't won't to give it up yet.

Thanks,

Polling up? I know you mean PULLING up but damn, your spelling is brutal. Take the slack off the strings, squirt some glue in there and clamp it down for a day or 2. That should do it...

That depends. Is the bridge separating from the soundboard? Or is the soundboard coming up? If the bridge is coming off, I would remove it completely and then reglue it. The glue is shot and it needs to be done again. I have done this with good results. But you need to very careful. Scribe around the bridge to break away the finish. Your could use a iron to loosen the glue. Use a very flexible thin knife and the bridge should pop right off. That is unless the bridge is screwed into the board. Then you have to have small hands. It's a cheap guitar and that is good.:ROTF: But when you fix it correctly, it will trully be Your cheap guitar.

Nah, just par for the course with this guy...

[Bengal65]

Yeah, and he won't even come back and acknowledge the fact that someone answered his post. Just question after question of bad spelling and punctuation.

I'm more than willing to let some things slide. But come on. How much is too much? Remember he's home schooled. How some people think they are smarter than people who went to college to learn to teach is beyond me. This is proof that some are not...

Another possibilty, the string holes in the bridge support block have
worn through, and the strings are pulling the bridge up. Not simple, but I have replaced it the with another support, and redrilled the holes.
The bridge would still have to removed, cleaned, and reglued. Use screws and nuts to hold the bridge as the glue dries. And remember to use a high quality wood glue, like Titebond 2. No superglue, or epoxies.

I missed the misspelling of "want" I'm sorry.

The strings haven't worn through any, it's just lifting up the back of the bridge a little.
