Luvay Guitar Bridge Saddle & Nut Replacement - Made of Real Bone for Acoustic Guitar, 2 Sets of 4pcs

On my inexpensive Glarry guitar, the saddles and nuts fit well. I was impressed with how well they were There was a perfect match between string spacing and dimensions. There was some sanding required to reduce the string action, but this I was able to sand both I spent less than an hour on it. A pair of ebony pins was also added. Adding a single-coil to any inexpensive guitar is a simple and easy upgrade. A few simple changes to the nut, saddle, pins, and a decent set of strings all add up to an incredible upgrade for less than $20. With the plastic components that it was assembled with, this instrument has a far better sustain, depth, and clarity than the plastic components used to create it. My daughter gave me this guitar as a gift so I could play with her. It wasn't hard to upgrade an acoustic as I play electric most days. I am not going to claim that this made it sound better than her Takamine (it didn't), but I can safely say that it is now at least technically A manufacturer sends two sets of these for $7 and they are of excellent quality. The result of using a Fritz ruler and some 150,220, and 340 grit sand paper (about two sheets of the 150 and one sheet of each) will be apparent and you will like the difference in the tone and sustain of the note. In the future, if I decide to get another acoustic, I'll definitely use these, as I was impressed with the quality and the results.

Wow! What a great I cannot believe what a great deal! $6 was the price I paid. I am selling two pairs of bone nut and saddles for 99 dollars. It was only my saddle that I replaced. I may have been able to work with it better had it been a bit bigger. Even with my $4k Taylor, I immediately noticed a difference (I swear I could hear it right away, but it may have been a placebo effect). 1) I wanted a tiny bit more arch on top (length) of the saddle, so I filed it first and then trimmed off a few millimeters from one end with a file. A file radiused the edges so it would fit snugly in the hole of the bridge. I then marked the new saddle compared to the old one with a dental pick so as not to file off too much. (rounding the end is very important to the sound. ) While searching the internet for a way to sand the bottom and keep it square, I came up with my own method. My new nut was slid along a metal ruler to keep it at 90 degrees, using a chunk of metal as a guide. Starting with loosening the strings, replacing the files, and bringing the instrument back to tune with Boss Tuner took me about an hour. A measurement is an action taken.

The old guitar bridge on my budget guitar had cracked, so I bought this to replace it. After just a couple of minutes of sanding, I had it inserted perfectly after it was a millimeter too long. In fact, it sits about 2mm shorter than my old saddle, which is actually pretty nice since it makes the guitar feel more like my electric guitar, but it isn't so short that I notice To be honest with you, I don't know if the old saddle was made of plastic or bone (and it was cracked), but there was definitely a difference in the tone of the guitar after the new saddle was installed. Honestly, I didn't need the nut piece but it looks to be of the same high quality, well-made construction as the rest of the screw. As a saddle, polished bone is used. All in all, these are great buys.

I think these bone parts are quite good. My Yamaha LL6 does not fit with either the nut or saddle There is no problem with the nut in terms of width, however the grooves for the strings are too Compared to the groove cut into the bridge, the saddle is significantly narrower. Two components are present in it Three millimeters of play in the sideways direction. Considering that they cost less than $10, I'm just going to hand them out. It would have been nice if they had fit properly. It looks like I'll just have to cut one from a blank or keep searching for the right size.

A good price can be found for the set of nuts and saddles. The saddle was good to me, and I thought there was a lot of it. In contrast, it is too narrow for the string spacing. When I tried it on my Taylor GS Mini Koa and takamini, the length was exactly right for them. After sanding them to lower height and thickness they fit nicely. In this case, it was the very tight spacing between strings that was the problem. The neck of my neck should be smaller because I have small hands. In spite of this, the strings of this set were crowded even for me, so I do not recommend this nut and I do recommend these saddles.

The saddle on one of the two was not flat and required quite a bit of sanding to remove the bow. This piece also has some rough spots (low spots) where it appears as if it doesn't have an adequate thickness for it to be finished correctly. was unable to find saddles the right size for the cheap Epiphone, so I ordered these knowing they were too thick, so I had to sand them down as part of the deal. It's pretty good for what it costs, but I can't refer to its musical features, but I'll just say you get what you pay for, and it can meet my needs perfectly.

Repair of the nut on the guitar of my kid. The quality is good. In this case, I bought the set to just replace the nut on a kid's guitar. I bought a plastic nut that fell off a piece of. There was one that was a little wider than that neck, but it could be sanded or rasped down to match if one so desired. My centering is pretty good, but the overhand on both sides is maybe 1mm. I don't think it's a big deal. I haven't tried the bridge swap yet. In any case, I'm looking for a few used guitars on CL, so these might be helpful. It's good to know that they are real bones.
