Callaham Tele® Bridges & Bridge Assemblies

Callaham Guitars Tele® bridge assemblies are manufactured from .075" cold rolled steel (unlike the stock Fender® bridges made from .045-.050" hot rolled steel). Callaham's unique manufacturing process ensures that the bridge sits flat on the guitar body, increasing sustain and eliminating the feedback and noise common with stock bridges. The sides of the Callaham vintage-style bridge assembly are lowered to allow for easier palm muting, and the front edge of the treble side of the bridge is removed to enable easier picking. Every Callaham saddle is buffed by hand to a high luster, allowing the string to rest on a perfectly smooth surface, and Callaham's design ensures that the strings won't touch the height adjustment screws.

Callaham's American Standard bridge assembly is designed to produce true Tele® tone in an American Standard guitar. It is a direct drop in replacement for the stock American Standard bridge.
