Music City Bridge Stud Finder - Aged
The Music City Bridge Stud Finder is the best replacement wraparound tailpiece for 1953-1960 Gibson guitars with offset bridge studs. It corrects every known problem of the original stop bar, without altering your vintage guitar.
The original wraparound forces you to crank the treble-side hex screw for intonation, leaving the bridge balancing on a screw tip: unstable tuning, strings misaligned over the pickup poles, a high profile that limits your action and that annoying sitar buzz. The Stud Finder fixes it all.
Features
- Extended treble-side collar with compensated top for accurate intonation
- Offset string holes that align the strings perfectly over pickup poles and fretboard
- Solid metal-on-metal contact: no tipping, better tone transfer and more sustain
- Low profile for a comfortable low action
- No sitar buzz
- Aged nickel finish that looks right at home on a 1950s Gibson
Fits: 1953-1960 Gibson guitars with offset (slanted) bridge studs, such as the Les Paul Junior, Les Paul Special, Les Paul TV Model, Les Paul Goldtop ('53-'55), Melody Maker and SG Junior.
Trusted by the pros: Vince Gill ("In tune, great sustain, sounds amazing"), Robben Ford and many Nashville session players use the Stud Finder on their vintage Gibsons.
