Colour Name:Black Tune-O-Matic "Nashville" Style Guitar Bridge with Roller Saddles for Epiphone Guitars.includes 6.3mm Posts. Made to the same high standards as the original Nashville bridge, and finished in highly polished chrome, gold or black, these bridges are every bit as good as their more expensive counterparts. With significant improvements in design, this bridge utilises high stability saddle retention rings to eliminate the dreaded saddle rattle of the original 70’s version. The additonal roller saddles grealty improve tuning stability and sustain. Produced by the same factory responsible for supplying many major USA brands, including Floyd Rose and Wilkinson, these parts won’t look out of place on any instrument. This model has 6.3mm post holes to drop over 6mm posts. Please Note: If you own an GIbson Les Paul, SG, ES etc. with smaller 4mm posts then please follow then please search for code BM015- Imperial ‘Gibson’ spec bridge.

Bridge post holes not a snug fit as are the originals
I bought this to replace the blade saddle bridge on my Epiphone Sheraton II Pro. I am a rhythm guitarist and found that strings were breaking at the bridge - In particular 4th and 5th strings! I modified the point of contact to avoid sharp edges but without improvement (I have no problem using my '78 Stratocaster or 2003 Gretsch Brian Setzer at gigs - I use the Epi for pub gigs where risk of damage or loss is slightly greater).The bridge seemed exactly to size but the post holes were a very loose fit compared to the original, which had insert bushes fitte to give a smooth sliding fit. A couple of turns of chrome adhesive tape to the posts remedied that, but that is why I have given four not five stars.After fitting, setting the action and the intonation (all very easy) I was impressed by the resonance and sustain of the guitar (the neck and woodwork of the Epi is almost as good as my ES 345 custom and the guitar sounds great. The hardware is less impressive). It is early days and the next few weeks of gigs will tell. As of now I am very pleased with the bridge and know that there are no sharp contours to stress the strings.

I bought this item to replace a damaged bridge on my Gretsch Pro Jet. This roller bridge fits perfectly using the original mounting studs and has helped to stabilise the tuning when using a Bigsby. The bridge itself is very well made and suitably sturdy. I would recommend this item if you require a roller bridge for your tremolo fitted guitar.

No issues
Have bought a couple of these to put on two Gibson style copies, improved both these instruments tuning and intonation. Great.

The fit and finish seems reasonable for the price, the rollers move side to side slightly which can occasionally create string buzz, the bridge holes are slightly too large for the pins going into the body also creating a lot of movement.

Poor quality
Too many burrs on the rotating part- removed with tweezers, the posts are about .5mm too small so the bridge has wobble and is a poor fit. Not worth the money- better out there.
