A Grade Gaboon Ebony Guitar Bridge Blank  181x58x12 mm

Pack of 1 Piece

Ebony is a premium tonewood highly valued in the guitar-making industry for components like bridges, fingerboards, and headplates. Renowned for its exceptional hardness, durability, and smooth texture, it provides long-lasting performance and a refined playing experience. Its dense grain structure enhances tonal response—delivering bright, articulate sound with excellent sustain—while resisting wear from constant string tension and frequent use.

Beyond its physical and tonal benefits, ebony's rich, dark color brings a touch of elegance and sophistication to any instrument. Whether used for structural strength or aesthetic detailing, ebony remains a top choice for luthiers and guitarists seeking both beauty and performance in their builds.

Ebony grading:

Ebony pieces of A Grade do not present obvious defects, but the color is not as uniform or dark as in higher grades, yet they still retain their beauty and the dark tone typical of ebony. The direction of the grain may not be as straight as in AAA or AA but this does not prevent them from being absolutely perfect to be used normally.
