Tune-O-Matic Guitar Bridge for SG Les Paul LP Style Electric Guitar

Great!

I purchased this TOM bridge to replace the stock TOM bridge on my Epiphone Les Paul Special II LTD (Player Pack model). The stock Epiphone TOM bridge uses a retaining wire to hold down the string saddles, and after only 6 weeks of playing the wire loosened up a little and generated a lot of open string buzz due to both the now lose retaining wire and saddles that now bounced around. The Metallor TOM bridge design eliminates the need of a saddle retaining wire, and once I installed it the bridge rattle and buzz went away. The Metallor TOM bridge snugly fit onto the existing bridge posts, whereas the stock TOM bridge had a little more play on the posts. This is a good budget upgrade to the stock Epiphone TOM bridge, as what came on the above described guitar.

This solved the intonation problem on "lower end" guitars I like to tinker with. It's just a little wider and gives you the tiny additional range of movement to actually get it correct, also the fit, finish, and heft When I order a guitar with a T-O-M I order one of these at the same time. I used to work in a guitar shop and love to tinker, and try to get them to play as well and sound good as more costly ones I own for less.

This is a good value. My Firefly 338 saddle had a wire on it which I didn't like, and was a bit jangly, this fits perfectly in its place, is easy to adjust, ended the stray vibrations, and dropped right on the studs and posts, so didn't need them.

I didn't have high expectations for this bridge, but it went on a cheap guitar so I don't much care. I took a bit of time to get the bridge saddles to loosen up enough to adjust intonation. I think the plating is just too thick in some parts. A drop of oil and some back and forth adjustment before installing on the guitar helped a bit. Once I got the saddles loose, it intonates well and the guitar stays in tune nicely.

Fits right on current posts. No need to pull out current bridge posts.

I was unable to use this product. It is not the products fault. I was trying to get a DIRECT replacement bridge and saddles that would simply be a drop on replacement for the stock Gibson bridge for my 2003 Les Paul Standard. My stock bridge saddles have noticeable "clicks" from where they rock back and forth in the bridge since the guitar was brand new. Gibson would not fix the problem. So the guitar sits in the case and has been a "looker" not a player. Due to some repair issues needed on my other guitars, I needed to get this guitar in a playable condition. Found this bridge on Amazon and thought I would give it a try. The mounting posts for this unit are a larger diameter than the stock Gibson, so I would also need to install the mounting posts in the body of the guitar. I am not comfortable drilling into a beautiful guitar, so I guess I am just going to suck it up and spend more money on a different bridge and saddles. What I saw on this bridge and saddles, I liked. The fit and finish are good, except for a bad scratch on the side of the bridge. I would not have returned the part just for that, but it does show poor quality control from the Chinese factory that made it. Had it fit my guitar without having to modify the guitar, I think it would have been a better bridge than the stock original one. This would be a great part for a guitar that is being refinished or already well worn, I just did not want to risk damaging the top of my beautiful guitar.

Excellent I bought this for an Epi Les Paul and the original bridge sucks cause the saddle screws don't go all the way through so they vibrate and make a terrible noise .. hard to imagine Epiphone would use such junk on an otherwise great guitar.

Put this on my Epi SG a few months ago and it fit like a glove. I've now put one on my Epi es339 and I've ordered one for my Epiphone Muse. This bridge is well made and wider than the stock bridge and allows for better intonation of my guitars.

Fit the original posts on my 2007 Epiphone Les Paul Standard, easiest installation ever. -Its wider than the original, allowing more room for proper saddle intonation -There is no saddle retaining wire to worry about. No more buzzing from the wire coming loose and having saddles fall out. -Excellent fit and finish -Allows the tailpiece to drop all the way down to the body, more stability and transfer of vibration Important upgrade for any Les Paul with that old ABR-1 style tune o matic bridge. The saddle retaining wire was a bad design

Bien fait , je recommande

So they Are super hot a k a loud Which means you don't need a Pre Amp, if you don't want one. It pairs really Really nice with P-rail pickups juat get an (On/on/on DPDT mini toggle) to Control between Just the piezo, the piezo and the pickups and the piezo off and just the pickups. Great clartiry And versatility, when hooked up to a volume and tone pot they a high end driven but wthen hooked up with pickups in the neck or middle Position and the tone knob rolled doqn to a quarter way up it sound more Like a real live Acoustic . No need for bass and treble pre amps this way is best

In the listing’s pictures it’s shown as a wider Nashville-style TOM bridge with no retaining wire, but what I received was a standard TOM bridge with a retaining wire, which is not what I wanted or needed. I returned it and got a Gotoh Nashville bridge, which was exactly what my guitar needed. The Musiclily bridge is shown on my guitar in the time it was briefly on there.
