The Original! TOWNER Down Tension Bar & Hinge Plate Adaptor

The TOWNER Down Tension Bar manages your sustain controlling your break angle.

The TOWNER Down Tension Bar allows you to control how much string tension you want.

          – Recommended to set the Down Tension Bar just below the saddles of the bridge. 

The TOWNER Hinge Plate Adaptor is designed to provide a flat surface for your strap lock or strap button on the BIGSBY® EX-SHORT hinge plate.

The TOWNER Hinge Plate Adaptor slot provides room for exact placement of the BIGSBY®.

The TOWNER Hinge Plate Adaptor and 2″ strap button screw acts as a retainer holding the BIGSBY® to the guitar body, relieving you from having to drill four extra screws into your guitar.
