Tune-o-Matic Bridge ABR-1 Style for Epiphone Guitars
This tune-o-matic bridge will fit a variety of Epiphone guitars including the Les Paul, SG, and ES Dot. Made in the same factory as Wilkinson and Floyd Rose hardware, it has the same impeccable build standards as the original ABR-1 bridge, but comes in at a fraction of the price.
Saddle Retention Rings
This bridge utilises saddle retention rings, which prevents the dreaded saddle rattle that's a symptom of lesser bridges of this type. This significant improvement in design means that this bridge will offer a better playing platform, allowing all your notes to ring out to their true potential.
Tune-o-Matic Bridge Design
The Tune-o-Matic was created as a direct replacement to the Wraparound bridge, first appearing on the Gibson Super 400 guitar in 1953 before appearing on the Les Paul Custom the year following. Keeping some of the qualities of the original Wraparound, the idea behind its construction was to make the distance adjustable for all strings with individual saddles, whilst simultaneously creating a better break angle for the strings with the addition of the stop bar tailpiece.
Things to Note
This bridge has 6.2mm post holes to drop over 6mm posts. If you're wanting to upgrade your Gibson LP, SG, or ES then you will need the smaller 4mm posts, so check out our BM001 for this purpose. Please also make certain you do not have a 'Nashville' style bridge, as these are slighty wider than the ABR-1. Our Nashville bridge for Epiphone guitars can be found by searching for code BM003.
Epiphone Les Paul Bridge
Whether you need a bridge replacement for your Epiphone Les Paul, SG, or ES guitar, this high quality bit of kit will do a fantastic job without costing you an arm and a leg.
