Ledwalletjim 0 Report post Posted June 18, 2020 (edited) Does anyone have any experience with these Ebony bridge pins from Crosby Audio? I'm thinking of replacing the ones on my G-45 standard with them but want to make sure they will fit properly? It lists the dimensions of them but not sure of the dimensions of the ones that came with my G-45.. https://crosbyaudio.com/collections/frontpage/products/pure-ebony-bridge-pins Edited June 18, 2020 by Ledwalletjim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dhanners623 79 Report post Posted June 18, 2020 Not those pins in particular, but I’ve got two guitars with ebony pins (from StewMac) and really like them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zombywoof 251 Report post Posted June 19, 2020 I have a bunch of guitars with ebony pins. But the guitars are all 80 to 100 years old. I like the way they look but other than that never gave them much thought other than whether they fit properly or not. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

QuestionMark 131 Report post Posted June 19, 2020 I only use wood bridge pins on all of my guitars. The only ones I’ve had problems with not fitting are the ones that have no vertical groove in them on the stem that goes into the guitar, where the string can align into. Even if the grooved one are tight it’s very easy to simply whittle or sand a small part of the stem so they fit. On the other hand, getting the non-grooved ones to fit, if they do not readily fit can be quite difficult to whittle down. I hope this helps!

75 Hummingbird 22 Report post Posted June 20, 2020 Hello Jim ,do your self a favour and buy a digital caliper . Cost should be between 20 -40 bucks . You will be able to measure your existing string pins and compare to other specs . Calipers are handy to have for many uses . 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
