“The Savvy” - A compensated wraparound tailpiece compatible with a vast majority of wraptail guitars.

Get 25% off MCB Locking Studs when purchased with a Savvy or Stud Finder Bridge.

The Savvy Bridge was designed with input from dozens of Nashville studio guitar players to get the intonation line, string spacing, and sound just right. The Savvy uses a custom-designed alloy for improved tone and sustain. 

The Savvy Bridge is an intonated wraparound tailpiece to be used as a direct replacement for most wraptail guitars.

The Savvy Bridges features:

  • Compensated top for accurate intonation.
  • Offset string holes that allow strings to line up over pickup poles and fretboard correctly.
  • Clean break-angle to do away with “sitaring”.
  • Custom alloy for improved sustain.

Totally amazing.

Does what it claims

This bridge solved my intonation and sitar issues on a lefty Epiphone Les Paul Junior. It also made it resonate much better. Worth every penny.

Great Addition to my Junior

I recently received the Savvy bridge and a set of locking studs and after installing them on my Les Paul Junior it’s like I have a whole new guitar. There was always something a little off with it, but after I gave the guitar a setup and installed the Savvy and locking studs, it’s been super playable! Great products!

Left handed Les Paul Special

I replaced the wrap tailpiece on my Epiphone LP Special with the Savvy and it made an immediate improvement. I’m essentially gutting this guitar and replacing everything with upgrades and this is the best thing I could have done for the tailpiece. More sustain, intonation is dead on and it looks great.

The Savvy upgrade to my Gibson Explorer

I was skeptical but wanted to give it a go so I could hopefully reduce string buzz and improve on the sustain as my Explorer is stock. The difference in tone and sustain was amazing. In the process of it all, the string buzz is completely gone. Very happy with this upgrade!

100% Awesome!

I got the savvy for my 2020 Gibson SG special and not only was I able to intonate it perfectly (and I mean "perfectly") but the tone improved significantly. Gibson should just include these bridges with all new specials and add the cost to the final price. I've been playing for 47 years and never before has any one part upgrade made a guitar this much better. I've been playing it for 4 years with a Schaller Signum bridge and while it is a great product the Savvy sounds better. The whole guitar and neck resonates regardless of what note you play in any register with the Savvy. Well done MCB!

Exactly what my LP Special needed!!

I’ve had other compensated bridges on other wrap tail guitars I’ve owned. The ones that worked were so ugly and a couple introduced sharp edges to the palm. The Savvy works perfectly and from a step away it looks like the factory saddle. I’m so happy with the purchase!
