Leo Quan Badass OGT Bass Keys – Open Gear Large Post – 4-in-line set

BIRTH OF A BADASS

Back in 1972, musician, innovator, and luthier Glen Quan saw the need for higher-quality guitar and bass bridges. With help from Leo Malliari of Leos Music in Oakland, CA, the first Badass bridges were born. Leo Quan Badass bridges were manufactured from a high-density Zinc alloy and offered improved attack, sustain and note-clarity. Badass bridges quickly gained a following with artists looking to upgrade their Fender basses and were ultimately featured on several Fender artist signature models. Through the 80s, BC Rich, Spector and Kramer featured Badass bridges as original equipment on their instruments and artist acceptance continued to grow. Today, Badass is known worldwide as the standard for quality replacement hardware that will enhance the tone, playability and appearance of your guitar or bass.

BADASS OGT OPEN GEAR 4-IN-LINE BASS TUNERS

Designed as direct replacements for Squier and Fender basses, our Badass OGTs offer several significant improvements over the originals without straying too far from their classic look. Utilizing a cast base plate rather than the traditional stamped-design improves stability and surface contact with the back of the headstock while a hex-head worm-gear tension screw reduces slip, ensures a smooth feel, and improves tuning accuracy. Last but not least, we lengthened the tuning key stem just a smidge for better clearance around the headstock. After all, why settle for average when you can be Badass?
