This is getting towards the thin end of the wedge when it comes to "niche" parts, but it does solve a "problem" I've had with guitars made in the Far east over the years, so, its probably worth while that it exists.

These are conversion posts - allowing you to fit "true" ABR style bridges onto guitars that were never designed to take them.
They screw into the M8 bushes you'll find on most "mid range" guitars made in the far east - most common on guitars like Epiphone®, but, really, anything that normally comes with a bridge with 6mm posts (easily identifiable because of the slot head in the post) and the part that sticks up, above the bush, is a 6-32 UNC section, which will allow you to fit a "real" ABR, with the smaller holes.

Really, its a cosmetic thing, and theres no real advantage to having a 4mm ABR over a 6mm one, but, lets be honest? Its something that bugs most of us at some point.

The only annoying part of this, is that these conversion posts are converting to imperial thread - so they're only intended to fit Gibson® thumb wheels (or thumb Wheels for a Gibson®) - Gotoh® and Axesrus® thumb wheels DO NOT FIT.

And, just so we're entirely transparent here - this listing is for 1 (one) post, not the pair, and only the post is supplied - no bushing, no thumb wheel, no Hex Wrench.
