Description

Back in 1972, musician, innovator, and luthier Glen Quan saw the need for higher-quality guitar and bass bridges. With help from Leo Malliari of Leo’s Music in Oakland, CA, the first “Badass” bridges were born. “Leo Quan Badass” bridges were manufactured from a high-density Zinc alloy and offered improved attack, sustain and note-clarity. Badass® bridges quickly gained a following with artists looking to upgrade their Fender® basses and were ultimately featured on several Fender artist signature models. Through the ‘80’s, BC Rich, Spector and Kramer featured Badass bridges as original equipment on their instruments and artist acceptance continued to grow. Today, Badass is known worldwide as the standard for quality replacement hardware that will enhance the tone, playability and appearance of your guitar or bass.

Meant to be used with the Badass Wraparound™, the FTT™ (Fine Tuner Tailpiece) takes tuning accuracy a step further allowing players to sweeten tunings and make micro adjustments to compensate for lower tuning machine gear ratios. This comes in handy for vintage guitars using tuners that have 14:1 and lower gear ratios.

You will receive the Badass Fine Tuner Tailpiece only, the Badass Wraparound Guitar Bridge is sold separately.

Fitment has been verified on vintage Leo Quan® Badass Wraparound™ Bridge and this FTT™ will work with the vintage bridge.

Available in Chrome, Nickel, Black & Gold
