alright eagle: gotoh in tune brass saddles inbound today

[newholland]

Mission accepted. Im putting the Gotohs on my #1 tele today- from what it looks like i haveta pull the feet out in the second saddle and reverse it for a wound g-- that sound right?

there they are. i gotta say, i was a little dubious that saddles would be super different, but willing to give it a whack. the gotoh in tunes definitely have a thing goin on. maybe its harder or better brass or a different way of drawing or casting these saddles- the the upper midrange clarity over wilkinson compensateds isnt really debatable. the wilkinsons just sound mushy and soft.

being able to set them all the same with a simple flip to get intonation on works great, and from even a couple feet away they look like my 72's steels.. just brass.


excellent call! now i just need two more sets


thanks for the heads up eagle!

I have these on all my teles. Love em.

Yep, great choice. I’ve even considered retrofitting a strat bridge with them.

what a great surprise! my p90 tele has always been kinda darkish and this really shifted the whole tonal balance.. and i had wilkinsons on every one of three teles. :lol: crap. ive spent $50 in way less fruitful ways than consolidating tone on three guitars

but guess im gonna have to now.
