JackB1 Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Anyone know where I can get a replacement saddle for a G45. They appear to be different from a J45. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortyearspickn Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I've gotten a set of bone pins and saddles for each of my 3 Gibsons from Bob Colosi. Great service. Be aware, you will hopefully get a saddle very slightly larger and need to sand it just a very small amount for a nice tight fit. Jury rig some type of guide so you sand it straight and flat. And, make sure the replacement isn't too thin - that'll cause it to lean towards the neck and put undue pressure on the bridge slot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 If you are looking for a replacement Tusq saddle, the G45 saddle radius is 16 inches. You might try this one on Amazon. Graph Tech Tusq 16" Radius Comp. Saddle PQ-9216-C0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
