Gibson ABR-1- “Historic collection” 24 K Plated Gold Tune-o-Matic bridge “Non Wired” with Brass and Nylon saddles for Iconic Archtop, Semi-Hollow and Solid Body guitars.

The ABR-1 Tune-o-Matic bridge is one of the many Gibson held patents under the legendary Ted McCarty’s watch in 1954. The cast metal Gold plated adjustable bridge allows for individual string intonation +/- along with thumbwheel screws for height adjustment.

The bridge saddles are reversible for extending the intonation adjustment and made of gold plated brass with a sharp witness point for tuning accuracy. The ABR-1 is planted firmly into the solid body or bridge base of the arch/carved top guitar, transferring the string vibration directly into the body/top adding brilliance and sustain along with great tonal definition.

This authentic version current production Gibson ABR-1 bridge was state of the art back in its day and remains a key element today in achieving a true vintage tonality.  Be it a Craved Top, Hollow body, Semi-hollow or Solid body guitar, it no doubt has the magic…
