Ron Thorn Brass Knuckle 12" Radius/Relic For Telecasters

The Aged / Relic'd Thorn Brass Knuckle saddle delivers increased sustain, precise intonation, and rock-solid stability - a modern fix for vintage style 3-saddle Tele bridges.

Designed nearly 20 years ago by Ron Thorn, the Brass Knuckle saddle rethinks the traditional T-style 3-saddle bridge.

Machined from a single piece of brass, it delivers greater sustain, rock-solid intonation, and a cleaner energy transfer: all six strings resonate through just two points of contact instead of six, for improved tone and stability.

The design also eliminates the common headaches of vintage saddles - lateral drift, uneven string spacing, buzzing screws, and high E slipping off the fretboard. It works with both string-thru and top-load bridges, and this Aged / Relic'd version is built for 12" or 7-1/4"–9-1/2" compound radius fretboards, as found on many Custom Shop models.

Includes: Brass Knuckle saddle, intonation screws, height-adjustment screws (reuse two of your existing springs). Bridge plate, pickup, and guitar not included.
