Upgrading Your Import Guitar With Faber® Guitar Parts

If you own an import guitar such as an Epiphone, Tokai, Burny or one of the many other import brands, you may be considering ways to improve it. These guitars are typical of very high standards and often sound and play great. However, many factories that produce these import Gibson style guitars reduce production costs by using sub-par materials for the guitars’ hardware.

Faber® USA provides high-quality replacement parts for Gibson style imported guitars. Your import guitar can now have some of the characteristics of a real vintage Gibson guitar.

Import guitars often come factory fitted with hardware made mostly from zinc alloy which reduces production cost but also compromises tone. High zinc alloy hardware will affect the guitars sustain and resonant tone.

Bridge

Faber® USA collection of guitar parts provides a range of bridge upgrades designed to improve the tone and sustain of any import guitar. Our bridge upgrades are made from aluminum alloy and will add a vintage look and feel to any guitar. Our bridges do not have the typical rattle inducing retainer wire and the saddles provide 100% mechanical contact in the ABR frame.

Our ABRM model bridge, from our ABR-59 line of bridges, is a direct “drop on” replacement for all import style bridges with 4mm mounting posts. No modification is required to make these bridges fit. We also offer our bridges with the optional upgrade of titanium saddles. Titanium saddles will provide a brighter tone, perfect for brightening up muddy pickups. If your guitar does not have 4mm bridge posts mounted directly into the top wood, see the section below titled, “Mounting Posts.”

Whereas the Faber® ABR-59 bridges are the non-locking type, Faber® also makes the locking Tone-Lock series, with our exclusive No Gap technology which further enhances contact between the bridge and posts and promotes vibration transfer and sustains.
