Question: Will switching from a plastic to bone saddle, and plastic to ivory or wood pins enhance a guitar's sound!?
I want to tweak my old acoustic guitar!. It is a "Kay" with updated gold plated quality tuning heads, in excellent condition, about thirty years old and has plastic pins and saddle!.
Would wood or ivory pins make a significant difference!? Would a bone saddle enhance the sound, too!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Yes but it might only be psychological!. If you make those upgrades your going to feel better about the guitar, connect to it better as such your going to play better!. Live you wouldn't be able to hear the difference but if mic'd with a really good mic you probably could tell if you listened closely!.

Sounds like it's going to be a nice guitar when you get done with it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
