Vintage ONE 50
ZAMAC
ZAMAC is a zinc alloy containing aluminium, magnesium, and copper — first formulated nearly a century ago as an efficient, cost-effective material for precision die-casting.
In the 1950s, it found its way into the original Gibson® ABR-1® bridge, helping shape the look, feel, and tone of a generation of guitars.
Loved by some for its distinctive resonance and sustain, debated by others for its tonal “color,” ZAMAC remains an undeniable part of electric guitar history.

Every Vintage ONE 50 bridge is precision-milled from highly compressed, custom-formulated ZAMAC blanks.
The result is the world’s first CNC-machined ZAMAC bridge — an unprecedented fusion of contemporary performance and authentic vintage tone.

  • FAT TONE

    The “ONE 50” comes with Fat-Flat 50s Saddles, which have a larger string contact area, similar to certain unusually great-sounding vintage 50s ABR-1 bridges where saddles were filed down to adjust string position.

    The increased string-to-saddle contact creates a fuller overall tone and enhances sustain.

  • MATERIAL & MORE

    Brass saddles are provided as standard and can be considered as the first choice in most cases.

    To form your tone in an even more specific direction, you are invited to choose from diverse materials or coatings optionally.


    Pre-notching can be ordered optionally.
