Does anyone recognize this bridge?

[AvE]

Wich brand/type ... is it quality ... and where to buy ...

I love the design of this bridge ... but what are those little pins on the side of the bridge? Has this something to do with adjustment?

Never seen a bridge like that.

What bass is it attached to?

 

[sobie18]

Zon Michael Manring Hyperbass bridge. Able to detune from the bridge side.

Thanks Sobie,

I did a big search on google but I can't find any usable info about this bridge! That's strange, because I've got this picture as a 'wild' one from the internet but I don't remember where ... On the end I found this on our forum: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=340350

My conclusion for now; I think this bridge is not for sale anywhere and is only mounted on the Zon hyperbass. If there is anyone who knows where to get one, please contact me!
Thanks for help guy's!

I prefer this one, really solid.

Yes, very solid, but difficult to intonate.

.. and you need a big piece of wood to put it on! ... what kind of strings do we use? ... and last but not least ... I don't know how to get it as 'one piece togheter' in my case!

zon hyperbass bass bridge, as mentioned - last time I heard it was unavailable, it was made as a one off by a german company. But I know Joe made a version II hyperbass recently that had similar design, so maybe it is available after all. Either way be prepared to pay some serious cash for it and rout out a big cavity for the design. In the end, if detuning is not your thing, it doesn't really seem like the right choice.

My bet would be that it was manufactured by ABG.

I can't remember the name of the company, but I remember Joe saying it was PITA! Its a very impressive and functional design though.

You mean ABM? There is a thread about them in the steinbergerworld mailing list right now. Seems they are no longer making anything at all....
