A Gibson Standard Born in the 1950s

The Gibson ABR-1 Tune-o-matic is one of the components that shaped the identity of Gibson electric guitars. Designed in 1954 under the guidance of Ted McCarty, it established a standard of functionality and reliability still sought after today, especially by musicians who want to preserve the spirit and feel of "vintage" instruments.

Adjustment, Sustain, Character: The Bridge That Respects Your Guitar

This ABR-1 bridge fits directly into the guitar body thanks to a separate stud and thumbwheel, providing a solid base for the strings. The result: excellent hold, efficient vibration transmission, and a natural sustain that highlights your instrument's character.

Whether you're looking to fine-tune settings after a string gauge change, optimize the action for playing comfort, or correct tuning across the entire neck, the ABR-1 allows you to adjust and refine intonation and string height in just minutes. Its nickel finish perfectly complements the aesthetics of classic-style guitars.
