Hipshot Tone-A-Matic 2020's - Black

This bridge and tailpiece set came off a brand new unused guitar that is being outfitted with an Evertune bridge. The saddles are pre-notched. The Hipshot Tone-A-Matic is an upgraded, two-post replacement bridge and tailpiece designed for Gibson and Epiphone style guitars. It features aircraft-grade aluminum, massive intonation range, magnetic locking tailpieces, and rattle-free stainless steel saddles that inject string energy directly into the guitar body for better sustain.Core FeaturesMassive Intonation Range: It offers over a half-inch of intonation travel. This makes it ideal for downtuned or baritone guitars where thick strings need more room to play perfectly in tune.No More Rattle: The unique stainless steel saddles act as "levers." They push firmly into the bridge base when string tension is applied to eliminate annoying saddle buzz and rattle.Locking Bridge Plate: Unlike traditional bridges, the Tone-A-Matic base can slide forward and backward on its mounting posts. You can lock it into place using small set screws for total stability.Magnetic Tailpiece: The stop bar (tailpiece) uses small magnets to hold it in place. It will not fall off or scratch your guitar's finish if your strings snap or are removed.Hex Key Adjustments: You can adjust both the bridge height and individual saddles using a standard 1/8" hex key, eliminating the need to use pliers or worry about scratching the hardware.Installation & CompatibilityThe bridge is designed to be a direct retrofit for Gibson Nashville and Epiphone style tune-o-matic bridges. It includes its own set of mounting posts and press-in body inserts.
