Killer Guitar Components has unveiled the Fat Bottom, a machined brass bar designed to add mass - and tone - to six-saddle tremolo and hardtail electric guitar bridges.
The Fat Bottom promises to increase resonance, sustain, stability and improve tone, while providing a place to rest the palm.
When attached to tremolo systems, pushing the bar even offers a fluttering vibrato sound.
Installation requires no modification to the guitar: the bar uses the intonation screws that attach the saddles to the bridge plate.
Two models of Fat Bottom are available via KillerGuitar.com: Vintage (2 7/32” string spacing) and Narrow (2-1/16” string spacing) for $49.95 each.
“Inspired by the popular Iron Label series, these instruments feature an all-black aesthetic, including a matte black finish and black hardware”: These new Ibanez Blackout acoustic guitars are… kinda metal looking
“Definitely one of the most unique pieces to come through our showroom”: It was left in a nightclub in '74, then “hidden in a closet for decades”, now Mike Bloomfield’s custom-painted 1966 Telecaster is up for sale
