Apparently this problem is not that uncommon across numerous Epiphone models using the 3-pointer. There are some
long threads about it over at TB. Most just glue them back in and go their merry way.

It is not limited to Epiphones - I was stretching the strings on a Gibson Midtown Standard and out popped the post, taking a star shaped chunk out of the finish with it. Gutted!

Yeow! That is distressing! I wouldn't imagine that to be an issue on an actual Gibson. :o

I traded a nickel-esque 3-point from my RD for a black Epi 3 point... never had a problem with the old or new one... admittedly, string thru, always...
They are different bridges and not directly replaceable so I had to plug and re-drill...

Exactly what I did with my Casady. Didn't bother me a bit.
