Kahler Bridge

Sign in to disble this ad
Hello,

I was always interested in Kahler Bridges. Aside from it having a tremolo, is it a good bridge? I love my BadAss II bridge, so does the kahler have mass? What other features does it have?

Thx

Koi

My bass sustains more since I put in a Kahler, they are a hefty piece of metal.

not sure if mass will make a big difference in sustain, but as we all know ,that discussion has been going on for ever.
I use a light bridge and feel no lack of sustain.

I believe this is the most common Kahler bridge design. It does not have a tremolo. But it's a very solid bridge, although it's a bit more work than usual to adjust it.

Dunno it the mass of the trem helps sustain, but its certantly anti-neck dive!
