Bring classic Telecaster tone and vintage style to your guitar with the Wilkinson WTB Ashtray Bridge. Inspired by the iconic Tele bridge design that has shaped electric guitar tone for over half a century, this bridge combines traditional aesthetics with modern improvements for enhanced tuning accuracy and playability.
The bridge features a durable steel base plate with a chrome-plated finish, delivering both strength and classic vintage appeal. Its compensated brass saddles are specially staggered to improve string intonation—solving one of the common limitations of traditional three-saddle Tele bridges while maintaining the unmistakable tone that brass saddles are known for.
Designed with a dual-load configuration, the Wilkinson WTB bridge allows players to choose between string-through-body or top-load installation. This flexibility lets guitarists tailor the feel and tension of the strings according to their playing style.
With a 2-1/8″ (54 mm) string spacing, the bridge is compatible with most Telecaster-style guitars, making it an excellent option for upgrades, replacements, or custom builds. The package includes matching mounting screws and an Allen wrench for convenient installation and saddle adjustment.
Combining classic design, improved intonation, and Wilkinson’s trusted hardware quality, the WTB Ashtray Bridgeremains a reliable choice for guitarists seeking authentic Tele tone with modern performance.
