The Towner® Down Tension Bar (DTB) and hinge-plate adapter is a SCREW-LESS system that mounts in place of the stop tailpiece on the existing studs.
The DTB provides V.S.T. [Variable String Tension] providing the ability to control the break angle between the bridge and vibrato tailpiece with the adjustment of each stud to the desired height. The DTB eliminates drilling holes in the body of the guitar when installing a Bigsby® B3 tailpiece.
The hinge-plate adapter is designed to go on the outside of the B3 hinge-plate to raise the strap button out of the slot for easier access and relief from drilling the extra four holes in the B3 hinge-plate.
