Unbleached Bone Acoustic Guitar Bridge Saddle for 74mm & 72mm Slots, Vintage Style, 4 Pack

Are you wondering if this saddle will fit your guitar? The most common widths for bridge slots on the market are 72mm and 74mm, with 76mm available but less frequently. The saddle you’re examining measures 74mm in length. It’s important to note that while you can trim bone saddles, you cannot expand them, meaning a 74mm saddle is compatible with 72mm bridge slots. For this adjustment, you'll only need to remove 2mm total, which translates to 1mm from each side.

Now, why should you consider bone saddles? While they aren't strictly necessary, many beginner guitars come equipped with plastic nuts and saddles. There's no need to dislike these plastic components; they function adequately for beginners, who often focus more on developing skills rather than on sound quality. However, you may notice that bone is predominantly used in mid-to-high-end guitars. The reason is simple: bone conducts sound more effectively. This enhanced conduction minimizes energy loss, leading to a richer, more sustainable tone.

Prominent guitar manufacturers and skilled luthiers rely on bone because of its superior acoustic properties. If you're growing weary of your guitar’s current sound, trying out a bone saddle may rejuvenate your acoustic experience.

What sets Vencetmat bone saddles apart? Using a COMPLETE bone ensures a full, well-balanced sound. It’s essential to note that they are made from entire cattle bone walls, and for best results, always choose complete bone over industrial synthetic plastics or bone meal molds. Vencetmat's nuts and saddles, crafted from genuine cattle bone, deliver precisely what you need for enhanced sound quality.
