ABR-1 Saddles are always Unnotched
All Saddles of our ABR-1 Bridges comes unnotched...why? Because of the different string gauge and Pickupspacings!
We offer Gibson Replacement saddles Brass, Nickel, Gold plated or raw, ABS and Nylon Saddles ( Fattened up the tone a little and took away the shrillness)
Nylon saddles are great with Semiacoustic Guitars...Joe Bonamassa using 3 Nylon saddles on 3 High Strings and 3 Brass saddles on Bass saddles...
it doesn't matter today...because
Gibson Changed specs of the Nonwired ABR-1 in 2010...Gibson changed specs of the screws in 2010 slightly, they will not fall out of the bridge if a string breaks...
but if you like it Vintage correct you have always the choice...btw. the Saddles Screws of the Nonwire and Wire Bridge are slightly different! Wired ABR-1 Screws have more Bevel compare to Nonwire Srews.
