Great replacement part
nidzaliman 13.03.2018
I own a 95' Gibson Les Paul Classic with a ABR-1 style bridge. The old one was overused and corroded, so I ordered this part and fits right in. The price quality of is good and the price is decent.

My problem is that I have some intonation problems and will have a try a TonePros AVR2 to try to fix that.

I would really like if Gibson would make a "modern" version of this bridge type, and take care of some of the deficiencies in the original design.

I have used this on a Gibson SG standard after the original tune-o-matic got worn out and made tuning difficult so a luthier recommended me to replace it due to possible previous corrosion during shipping and depositing.
I later found out I have very sweaty hands and therefore the saddles got corroded and rendered the guitar impossible to tune on the ABR-1 as well.
It was an restoration when i first placed on my guitar, but i later found out that the bridge size was inappropriate for my guitar. It was smaller and the saddles had a much shorter range for tuning. I worked my way with it a couple of years until it got corroded beyond any hope of tuning and changed it for a Tone Pro's.
Overall it wasn't an improvement to the first one and didn't help too much with fine-tuning but overall it did it's job.
I recommend anyone who wants to change the bridge on a Gibson to carefully measure what they have and find something with the same specs as websites were very vague on such details when I got it.

Kopien besser als Original
Henri S. 27.10.2009
Da will man für seine Gibson natürlich ein Originalteil haben, und hat damit leider ein qualitativ eher minderwertiges in der Hand. Die Böckchen der Brücke lassen sich zum Teil nur mit Gewalt in manche Positionen, z.B. ganz bis zum Ende - verstellen, dabei hebt sich dann auch noch die Einstellschraube leicht aus ihrer Position. Was die Firma Gibson unter Qualität und Präzision versteht, ist mir manchmal schleierhaft. Da sind die Kopien mancher Teile qualitativ besser als das Original

Le top pour restaurer une Gibson
fred-paris 23.10.2018
Le chevalet ABR1 avec fil de rétention des pontets n'est pas le meilleur design sur le marché mais c'est bien de pouvoir remplacer à l'identique celui d'une Gibson qui a bien vécu. Il est livré avec les pontets pré-réglés ce qui fait gagner du temps à l'installation.
