ABM 2506N Bell Brass Big Stud Epiphone Nickel Bridge Kit

Item number: AB23058

This perfect replacement bridge for Epiphone and Asian guitars woth big studs (6mm to M8).  This bridge is milled one piece at a time on a CNC from a single billett of Bell Brass and then hand polished and Nickel plated to a very high standard.

Almost all other Tune-O-Matic style bridges are zinc die cast and always have been because it was the only way to produce complex shapes back in the day, no CNC's in the 50's.  What no one realized was that zinc is a terrible material for use in a guitar bridge, no other bridge is made from zinc it is always steel or brass, zinc is virtually incapable of promoting harmonic overtones relying on the power of the pickups to do all the work.

With the ABM T.O.M bridges you will notice a much more even tone across the plain and wound strings, a clearer more defined tone with the lows clearer and punchier and the highs less spiky.  You will notice an improvement in the way a note blooms, sustains and rings, it is just much more musical.

The supplied bushings should not be used in an upgrade as removing the exsisting parts will damage your guitar, they are supplied for new builds only.

Please note that the bridges are supplied unnotched so that the string location can be correctly matched to your instrument. Instruction regarding notching can be found in the support area of the 2500 Guide.

Pre-Notched bridges

If required we offer a Pre-Notched option where we cut the notches for 10-46 strings centered over the saddles as this allows for the saddles to be flipped if more intonation adjustment is required and is the way that Gibson ship their guitars.

In the Kit:

  • 1 Nickel Bridge in Bell Brass
  • 1 Set 6mm bolt onto M8 Studs
  • 1 Spare saddle with screw
