Real Bone Bridge Saddle (not synthetic bone) for Acoustic Guitars (72mm)
- High Quality Ox Bone Nut
- Compensated
- Right Handed
- Flat Based
- Length x Width: 72mm x 3mm
- Height: 8.5mm (low E)
- Compensated angled slots for better intonation
TYPE 1: Smoother angle and curves
TYPE 2: Steeper angels and more drastic compensation
A saddle and nut replacement is one of the most simple but effective ways to improve the tone of your instrument.
Ox Bone has a higher density than regular plastic or synthetic bone, providing improved sustain and clarity.
Bone also gives greater tuning stability in comparison to plastic, as well as being much more durable.
Every guitar is different so you need to adjust the height by sanding the bottom of the bone saddle/nut on a flat surface with a piece of sand paper or on a belt sander. If your saddle height is too high you could have intonation issues, if it is too low you can have fret buzzing issues, please research how to get the correct height on a bone nut/saddle. At Valley Sound we also have a roller sander tool which makes the process easier. This saddle is compensated for better intonation but you can further fine tune your intonation at the top of the saddle with a flat nail file.
