GRAPHTECH TUSQ SADDLE - ST AND TC 2 1/16inch SPACING -6 PCES

I have installed these on nearly all of my MIA Fender stratocasters, and recently installed these on a American Performer Telecaster. I decided I really am not a fan of barrel style saddles on telecasters, so I changed out the ashtray style plate, and replaced the saddles that came with it with these, and the results were amazing. I had a flat sounding G string, which this corrected, and the palm feel is infinitely more comfortable.I don't typically break strings, so this advertised feature on Graphtech saddles can be hard to guage, but I don't recall ever breaking a string with these saddles on multiple guitars.The major complaint with Graphtech saddles I've read appears to be people saying they experienced tone loss, which is absolutely not been the case for me. I was extremely concerned that these might alter the signature tele brightness and twang (despite my positive strat experiences), but it actually enhanced it, and was a notable improvement over the brass saddles, which I am starting to believe are vastly overrated.My most notable improvements since switching to Tusq saddles, has been in increased sustain, smoothness in feel (most notably in bends),and I actually believe these enhance the instruments natural tone.To somewhat validate some of the complaints I've read,; my experience with the black string saver saddles are more in line with the reviews (minor tone loss, and an over slinky feel), but these are not them (which I don't believe these reviewers fully realize). Just remember that this is the same company that guitar manufacturers advertise as a feature for their high quality guitar nuts being installed as a selling point, and as far as I can tell, these are basically the same in materials.I first tried Tusq saddles in a used guitar at a Sam Ash I tested out many years ago that blew my mind with the tone and feel. I immediately went home and began researching (due to their unique look, it wasn't difficult to figure out). and found these, and I haven't looked back since. There is no comparison to anything I've tried thus far, and in the eternal search for tone, this is one battle I actually won.

I put these on my s-style partscaster, and they're amazing! They feel so much better than metal saddles with the tall pole pieces.They Come with two different height pole pieces for each saddle, so you can use the taller ones for higher actions, and the lower ones for, you guessed it, lower actions. I really do feel these play a part in how stable my tuning has been. That said, don't expect perfection with these. If you want perfect tuning stability, you'll have to shell out for a guitar with a Floyd Rose and a locking nut.They're expensive as s**t for what they are, but if you've got thr money for them, you won't regret buying them. As soon as I can afford the same saddles in black (which are over $50 for some reason...), I'll be getting those for another guitar.

Good saddles for palm muting. Slightly diminishes some of the overtones but the overall sound is what I prefer for metal. These are installed on an Ibanez Mikro.

This bridge is awesome in every way. No more "cheese grater" for me.

I don’t know how I tolerated the sound and stability of my old factory saddles on my 2011 American Standard Strat! After having put these on, the response, sound and feel, ring true to my ears! If you are looking for a subtle yet game changing experience, buy these saddles. You won’t be disappointed.

is a very nice product, light weight and with a lot resonance. I have used many types of saddles and these are great however is not a big difference compared to steel saddles... the diference is in the tone that each saddle material gives...
