lt;p>The Thorn Brass Knuckle is a 1-pc. compensated saddle for T-style 3-saddle bridges, designed 19 years ago by Ron Thorn - the first Principal Master Builder at the Fender Custom Shop.<br><br>Increased sustain, accurate intonation, and solid coupling between strings and bridge plate. <br>The advantage is all 6 of the strings' energy is transferred through just 2 points of contact between the Brass Knuckle and the bridge plate, instead of 6 found on a traditional 3-saddle arrangement.<br><br>In addition, the Brass Knuckle prevents lateral saddle movement which plagues traditional 3-saddle arrangements, often resulting in uneven string spacing, high e-string flopping off the side of the fretboard, and strings hanging up on height-adjustment screws causing buzzing and horrible sustain.<br><br>Works with tradition String-thru or Top-load bridges with most non-wound G-string gauge string sets (9-42, 10-46, 11-49 etc.)<br><br>Designed to match<b><strong> 9-1/2"</strong></b> radius fretboards, but we've determined it works beautifully on vintage 7-1/4" by having a slightly higher action on the high e-string, reducing choking-out during big bends. This is likely how your 7-1/4" radius fretboard guitar's saddles are already set up - with a flatter radius equal to this saddle.<br><br>This listing is for the <b><strong>9-1/2" radius Thorn Brass Saddle for right handed guitars</strong></b> and mounting hardware only (Intonation screws and height adjustment set screws included, use 2 of your 3 existing springs). The bridge plate, pickup, springs and guitar shown in the photos is not included.</p><p>This is for the NEW/POLISHED version of the Brass Knuckle. See other listing for AGED/RELIC'd version available.</p><p> Also, a 16" radius Brass Knuckle for flatter or compound radius fretboards is available in other listings.</p><p>This product is not affiliated with Fender / FMIC..<br><br>Thanks for looking!</p>
