Ebony is the traditional choice for the bridges of steel-string acoustic guitars. It's used on the highest quality guitars due to its hardness, stability and acoustic properties. Ebony is also frequently used on classical guitar bridges.
These bridge blanks are cut from the finest African Ebony, they are dry and ready to use.
The grading is based purely on aesthetic considerations and lower grade bridges can make just as good a sounding guitar as the higher grades. The first grade timber has a more even black colour while the second grade can be more grey with some streaking. Some luthiers prefer the look of the second grade as it has more character.
