Abr-1 Style Tune-o-matic Bridge Tailpiece Roller Saddle Bridge for Gibson Les Paul Gear Replacement (Black)

The bridge on my Les Paul was incorrectly placed too far away from the pickups. This bridge allowed me to move the bridge closer to the pickups which solved my problem with intonation. But, honestly, I was shocked how this bridge sounds in my Les Paul. Sustain, tone and resonance is unbelievable good. I am a big fan of brass and it’s effect on tone. So maybe the brass saddles are making the main difference tonewise.As far as I know this bridge is made in China? And things that come out of China aren’t particularly known for being high quality. All I can say is I love the effect this bridge has on my tone. Before the change this Les Paul was not a guitar I connected with. After the bridge install this gtr has become one of my favorite guitars! Great Value!

At first I was disappointed because the bridge would not fit on the stock Gibson posts of my LP Studio, once I unscrewed the posts from the anchors, I found the supplied posts threads to match perfectly. I didn't have to change out the posts for my LP Standard, the bridge slipped over them just fine.The bridge is a bit taller than the stock one, so I recommend starting lower than you usually do and adjusting from there.I was a bit skeptical about getting a wrench past the string for intonation (the strings pass over the adjustment screw), but it was easy to just push the string over slightly to access the setscrew.Only critique I have is that all the rollers are the same width, which means the thinner strings can float back & forth a bit on the roller. That can be good or bad, depending on how you look at it, I'd prefer them to be varying sizes.Overall, great bridge. Rollers help a lot with a Bigsby, and something about this bridge is better than the stock one in sound. Much more resonant - the strings jangle when the guitar is unplugged. It's very nice.I tried several other bridges and found them to be import sized, not USA size (whatever that is). This one fit perfectly on my 2019 Gibson Les Paul Studio and my 2012 Les Paul Standard. Best of luck

Seems to be a good quality bridge and tailpiece. The bridge uses ABR style posts, not the larger Nashville one so make sure you have the right posts before ordering. The holes for the posts are a little tight, but it fits. Very adjustable with various hex-screws. I will update my review once I finish the guitar, but it feels like a good quality product. Certainly better than came on my cheap guitar.

I am pleased with this product, unfortunately I ordered it to replace a bridge on a Oscar Schmidt blues King guitar. This bridge did not fit my guitar because the posts are thinner than the original posts on the original. Overall, it seems sturdy and well constructed. I may need to further adapt the bridge via removing the original sockets and plugging the holes with wood and then re-drilling new holes for the new bridge sockets, but that's me; I like DIY projects.

Wide flat rollers result in inconsistent string spacing and tuning fluctuations, they also don’t move freely so they cause more issues then they solve, the mounts are not congruent with most lp style models and require modification, the gold coloring Is very thin and wears off in the first few hours of play leaving an ugly pewter color, the adjustable saddles are both poor design and hard to access so its near impossible to get perfect intonation maybe worst bridge I’ve used there are lots better out there for same price or cheaper

I installed this on a Les Paul copy guitar. I pre-measured the existing bridge and found this one that fit perfect. This is the first time for me using a roller bridge. A little more effort to intonate the guitar than a standard abr-1 bridge. Update: The holes on the back of the stop tail piece are just a little too small for the balls of the string to fit through. Once the strings are installed they are a real pain to take back out. I had to use a very small punch to push the ball ends out of the stop tailpiece. I used a Dremel to open the holes up a little bit wider.

Exactly what I wanted and had it installed in about 5 minutes.

The tailpiece seems to be fine. The bridge took a lot of filing to set over the pins. The intonation adjustment is not very precise, and the strings run over the adjusting screws. I only ordered this because I needed the small bridge posts to keep from redrilling the holes in the guitar body. I wish the Guyker had fit, looked a lot better made.
