Tune-o-Matic Roller Bridge for Epiphone Guitars

If your Epiphone guitar has a Bigsby or Duesenberg tremolo, then pairing it with a roller saddle equipped bridge will offer an excellent upgrade, offering enhanced tuning stability whilst relieving the break angle of the strings. Roller saddles will also provide a lesser pressure on your strings than a standard tune-o-matic bridge.

Roller Saddles

The thinking behind roller saddles is to have less pressure and less friction at the bridge, which is particularly useful when combined with tremolo systems for guitars. Even if your guitar isn't tremolo-equipped, roller saddles still provide an advantage over traditional tune-o-matics as the break angle is less pronounced. This means that you won't wear away your bridge saddles over time, a common issue with tune-o-matic equipped guitars. Some players also find that it feels more comfortable against your picking hand thanks to the lack of sharp edges.

Saddle Retention Rings

This bridge utilises saddle retention rings, which prevents the dreaded saddle rattle that's a symptom of lesser bridges of this type. This significant improvement in design means that this bridge will offer a better playing platform, allowing all your notes to ring out to their true potential.

Things to Note

This bridge has 6.3mm post holes to drop over 6mm posts. If you're wanting to upgrade your Gibson LP, SG, or ES then you will need the smaller 4mm posts, so check out our BM015 for this purpose. Please also make certain you do not have a ABR-1 style bridge, as these are slighty narrower than the Nashville. Our ABR-1 bridge for Epiphone guitars can be found by searching for code BM002.

Roller Saddle Bridge

Upgrading your hardware is one of the quickest and low cost ways to find an improvement in your guitar's performance. This Roller Saddle Bridge for Epiphone Guitars will offer a significant upgrade to both your sustain and tuning stability, making your guitar tone come to life!
