: : : I'm looking for nylon saddles to replace the metal ones on my Epiphone Sheraton ll Guitar. Can anyone help me. : : Graph tech makes graphite saddles for the various : tunematic bridges. Depending on exactly what bridge : you Epi has you might be able to use the gibson nylon : saddles. If your bridge has the adjustable thumb : wheels like a Gibson they *should* fit; they won't : if you have the bridge that has the larger posts : that you need a screwdriver to adjust. No idea where : you can get the gibson ones though. : Why change them? I had a Les Paul that had the nylon : saddles and it didn't sound very good with them. Much : better sustain and tone with metal saddles imho. But : it's pretty impossible to break strings with the nylon : tho, but you can break the saddles. : I don't know how the graphite saddles sound from my : own experience, I;ve heard both pro and con about them.. : Doug
