Sgt. Pepper Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 (edited) How do the nylon saddles sound compared to metal? Edited April 26, 2020 by Sgt. Pepper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it takes away a tiny little bit of the fuzzy high, and it might preserve the stings better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01GT eibach Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 So, the new studs are for the ABR bridge, correct? You changed knobs and added pickup covers, too ... correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twang Gang Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 IMHO if you really want a 70's look the pickguard should go back on 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01GT eibach Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 I think your guitar looks awesome. Going for a 70s look is especially cool as it really provides some uniqueness. And ... yes, definitely black over cream for the pick-guard. If you do go the pick-guard route, post some more pics. I know that I would love to see it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merciful-evans Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Looks a neat job. Real nice look. 👍 I have been wondering about trying nylon saddles for a while. I've done a little research. This is one thing I found. It seems Bonamassa experimented with them and ended up using 3 nylon and 3 steel on his LP link . Very few buying options in uk though. Also very expensive for an experiment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
