There is an age-old dilemma plaguing all vintage
guitar lovers. What if my vintage saddles break and I need to replace
them? "Will my tone change? Will I be able to keep that vintage look?"
The problem with today's replacement saddles is that they are made of
different materials. Many use copper under nickel plating and have inconsistent
hardness. Different materials, platings and inconsistent hardness all
result in altered tone to your beloved vintage guitar.
Note: We have 2 different version as follows.
RVS-112 (11.2mm / 0.441 inch Pitch "Fender USA" type)
RVS-108 (10.8mm / 0.425 inch Pitch "Gotoh Japan" type)
MSRP: $75/set
Vintage players rejoice! Introducing RAW VINTAGE Pure Steel Saddles. We've
analyzed, down to the molecular level, real 50's vintage steel saddles
and have come up with a special formula reproducing the exact metal structure.
We've utilized the same manufacturing technique, nickel plating directly
onto the steel body, to provide you with consistent vintage tone!
And for all those relic owners, everything about your guitar screams vintage;
vintage radius, vintage type pickups and aged body and neck. Shouldn't
your saddles be vintage too?
