I am selling this beautiful inlaid ebony bridge equipped with its gold-plated Gibson ABR-1. It is compatible with all hand-carved Gibson archtop guitars (L-5, Super 400, Byrdland, Johnny Smith, Legrand, Super V, etc.), from vintage models to the latest Custom Shop models.

The ebony base, inlaid with the famous motifs, supports two gold-plated threaded posts with a fine 6-32 thread and two gold-plated wheelknobs approximately 16 mm in diameter, finely knurled. String action is adjusted using these two slim knobs. The gold-plated Gibson ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge ensures perfect intonation.

The numerous close-up photos I’ve posted allow you to zoom in on the details of the bridge, which you can see much more clearly than if you were actually holding it in your hands. You can get a precise idea of its condition that I only stated as Very Good for some very minor signs of wear that have no impact on its functionality.

This is a rare find online, ideal for replacing an old, broken bridge from a Gibson or another brand, or for enhancing a guitar that’s equipped with only a plain, inlay-less bridge.

But this luxury bridge will undoubtedly add a touch of class to your favorite archtop jazz guitar, whether it’s a Japanese model from the ’70s by Ibanez, Hondo, Eagle, Aria, Greco, Memphis, Antoria, Yamaha, or Epiphone, or a more recent Korean model by Peerless or a Chinese model by Eastman.

I do not intend to sell the inlaid ebony bridge and its Tune-O’Matic ABR-1 separately.

A real bargain at this price, especially with such a configuration in near-new condition.

Feel free to ask—I can always provide additional photos if needed.

If shipped, the package will be protected, secured, and well-wrapped in bubble wrap.

Please check out my other listings.

No trades, please. Shipping from the Lyon area in France or in-person pickup (cash only).

Thank you for your attention.
