Kluson is back in the hardware game with these USA made Nashville-style Tune-O-Matic bridges and Tailpieces for Gibson guitars.

These are awesome OEM bridges for builders or the DIY repairman offering a longer adjustment area and more mass than the original ABR-1 bridge. They match Gibson specifications and are drop-in non-modification required replacement parts.

The Kluson® USA™ vintage stop-bar tailpiece is a high-quality tailpiece that is very hard to distinguish from the originals of the 50’s and 60’s. Made in America with a 5-step plating process. Made from zinc and plated Chrome, or Gold.
Includes 5/16-24 steel studs.
