“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.

Marked improvement

Bought the Savvy because… Uncle Larry of course. What an improvement for my Gibson SG over the factory tailpiece. No more sitar, plinky sounding strings. Notes ring out and there seems to be improvement in the resonance. Intonation is spot on right out of the package. Great product!!!

Savvy tailpiece on ‘57 RI LP junior

The bridge is great and the guitar intonates well but I noticed that have the intonation screws all the way out to get it in tune. There is some slop on the factory bridge screws which makes the bridge flop down slightly so I might get your bridge screws to get the bridge level. Perhaps that will gain me some more adjustment on the bridge level? Hope this makes sense! It’s a great product.

Fixes strings alignment

I just received the Savvy and this bridge will rock! But I previously bought the Stud Finder for a guitar where the strings were shifted to the treble side and intonation was not possible with the old wrap around bridge. The Stud Finder fixed both issues. I bought the Savvy for a new build Junior… and it’s gonna do the trick!

Huge Improvement

I had read the reviews and all that, but holy cow this Savvy saddle is amazing! I just bought a brand new LP JR in tobacco burst delivered yesterday. Today the Savvy showed up. Instant improvement in tone, power and intonation...like the expression 'taking the blanket off your amp'. I'm using a Vibrolux or a BF Bassman and the JR with Savvy its getting ready to show its stuff out in the clubs!

Great product/ excellent customer service

I was reading an article from Joe Bonamassa, and he suggested the use of Music City Bridges for guitars with wraparound bridges. I called MCB and spoke with Josh who was super friendly and helpful while answering all my questions before placing my order, and other questions I had during installation.
I ordered the Savvy bridge and locking studs and wow what an improvement! The guitar sounds, plays, and feels so much better than before. I’d highly recommend doing this relatively inexpensive upgrade..
