Lightning Guitars Aluminum Stopbar Tailpiece, Chrome
Lightning Guitars has reimagined the classic stopbar fitted with Tune-O-Matic type bridges and solved the compromises that are inevitable with original stopbars.
Mounting the stopbar close to the body of the guitar to improve sustain and intonation creates a harsh string angle and applies excess pressure to the bridge, making string breakage at the saddles more likely.
Some players attempt to solve this issue by "top wrapping" the strings, passing them backwards through the holes and over the top of the bar to the bridge. This decreases the break angle and allows the bar to be lowered to the body. However, it also results in damage to the top of the stop bar, and the exposed ends of the strings can be uncomfortable. The Lightning Stop Bar offers all the benefits of top wrapping without the downsides.
Chrome-plated light-weight aluminum.

Music City Bridge Locking Studs
Designed to work with virtually any wraparound bridge or stop tailpiece.
MCB Locking Studs pair perfectly with their Savvy or Stud Finder bridges, and will also work with virtually any wraparound bridge or stop tailpiece.
These locking studs feature a separate top and bottom section that allow you to fasten the studs tightly to your bridge, which can improve action, remove tipping, and eliminate sitarring.
The totally unique design of these studs preserves the look of traditional studs but allows for a perfect fit with your bridge. The lower section of the stud is recessed to receive the barrel of the upper stud, creating a seal between the two pieces.
The MCB Locking Studs include two adjustment tools to make it easy to change action and tighten the locking section.
If you need metric studs we offer TonePros Locking Studs with metric threads.

All Callaham saddles are hand polished and buffed to insure they are free of burrs that can cut strings. Allen wrench included.$48.50
