ONE 2  Brass
Brass is a copper-zinc alloy. The use of Brass has a long history in instrument making due to malleable properties and excellent acoustic characteristics. 
In terms of tonality, it can be seen as the most versatile material and can help bringing even a plain and dull sounding instrument to life.

  • SAFE AND TIGHT TONE

    All strings naturally have a perfect, safe and tight contact surface to the saddles and create a perfect fusion to the bridge and hence to the guitar body. Great tone and tuning stability guaranteed.


    This bridge regularly comes with Nickel- , Chrome plated V-Saddles made of Brass. To meet your functional or tonal needs even more, you are invited to choose from diverse materials or coatings optionally.

  • FITTING ALL STRINGS

    The deep smart designed V-grooves just have the right fitting for all string gauges.  No matter if you prefer very light, extremely heavy or mixed sets of strings, the V-saddles take them all.

    This also makes them ideal for players who want to try or change different string gauges from time to time. 

  • PLAYING FEARLESS

    Good news! Even the most extreme bendings are no longer a risk for detuning and breaking strings!

     

    The perfectly rounded, low friction contact area prevents your strings from sticking and guarantees a perfect back and forth sliding.



  • ADVANCED PLATINGS

    The V-PLUS Saddles are coated with an extra hardened electroless Nickel layer, which has comparable lubrication and hardness properties like hard chrome, but with significant better layer characteristics inside the notch itself.

    For an ultimate experience and durability, you can furthermore choose an extra DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) layer on top, wich provides the most advanced technology in terms of hardness and long-term lubrication available.

Vintage ONE 2
ZAMAC
ZAMAC is a zinc alloy including elements of aluminium, magnesium, and copper.
Invented almost 100 years ago as a perfect material for diecasting large quantities of metal parts by keeping the costs down. Therefore the original Gibson® ABR-1® Bridge was also produced in this way. The rest is history!

All "Vintage ONE V" bridges are precisely milled out of highly compressed, custom made zink alloy blanks.
The result is the worlds first CNC machined ZAMAC bridge and is surely the most advanced combination of contemporary performance, vintage tone and safety.
