New! Made in Japan High Quality Genuine Gotoh Tailpiece Specifications ◆ Model Name: GE101A ◆ Finish (Color): B / Black ◆ Type: Stop Tailpiece ◆ String Pitch: 10.3mm ◆ Material: Aluminum / Aluminum ◆ Metric Size This is the "GE101A" tailpiece, commonly used on domestic Les Paul type guitars. GOTOH, renowned as a high-quality, premium Japanese-made parts manufacturer! This "GE101A" series bridge is made of aluminum material, and it's an incredibly lightweight tailpiece, weighing in at only about 78g. The sound changes significantly when the mass of the tailpiece is altered. Also, since it's a GOTOH product, it has the necessary strength, and its vibration conductivity is excellent. You can expect effects such as increased sustain and harmonic content. The fact that the shipping cost is lower due to the light weight is also a nice bonus! The parts that first transmit the vibrations of the strummed strings are the pegs, nut, and bridge. If you cut corners here, the body and neck made of good wood won't matter. Please refer to the GOTOH official website for the screw diameter, etc.
