CONTEMPORARY VINTAGE

 -

The compensated wraparound bridge not only preserves the authentic look and feel of classic vintage guitars, but also incorporates carefully engineered, unobtrusive functional improvements.


Although the Whiptail was originally designed to solve intonation problems, it also delivers a clear tonal enhancement — adding clarity, dimension, and depth to your sound.


This high-quality bridge is an ideal replacement and upgrade for all Gibson® (and Gibson®-style) guitars such as Goldtops, Juniors, Specials, and more.



It is also a perfect choice for vintage-style new builds, offering increased power and excellent tone.
