Blisstime6 String Acoustic Guitar Bone Bridge Saddle and Nut and 6pcs Ebony Guitar Bridge Pins

Came across a Phantom acoustic on Facebook marketplace one day. Was really beat up, no strings, no pins, and even missing the nut! I bought all the parts on Amazon, just sticking to the best things I could get. This bone nut (had to shape it myself - a first for me!), new bridge and a set of D'Addario Silk and Steels. I didn't use the pins from this set though - found a set of Ebony ones instead.Wow - Phantom from back in the day - this thing sounds so rich and full - you wouldn't believe I bought it for $50. With early endorsements from Earl Slick of "Phantom, Rocker & Slick" this is a piece of music history. Thanks to Amazon for helping me out on this project!

Put this nut, saddle, and pin set on a mono price Idyllwild hundred dolla cedar top acoustic. Could not have asked for a better match! The nut was perfect replacement fit in all dimensions but for a fraction of a millimeter on each end too wide that sanded down to size easily. Compensated saddle was also a drop-in replacement for the stock plastic, but I took the height down a couple mm for action adjust. Bridge pins look nice, like in the listing pics, but also required a few swipes of a file for a snug but not forced fit. These adjustments are not complaints, I'm glad they arrived a hair too large, because you can take some off but you can't add it.I feel like the guitar went from "nice" to "very nice!" This DIY upgrade was worth several times it's price in my eyes and ears.(remember to wear a mask when sanding bone or ebony as the particulates are unhealthy to inhale)

Good.

These made a noticeable difference in the tone of my guitar. I have already ordered some for my other guitars.

I bought these ebony pins to replace the standard stock plastic pins that were OEM in my Big BabyTaylor. They fit perfectly right out of the bag, very simple install overall. Visibly, these are an immediate upgrade from the plastic pins, the heads are really nice looking.Sound-wise I don’t hear a major difference with these ebony pins versus the plastic ones, potentially there is a bit more sustain but I can’t honestly say if it’s that much better or not or if it’s even a measurable difference unless I run it through the computer in a controlled environment.The nut and bridge are great, I used these to replace a damaged set on a 1970s Yamaha FG, and after a bit of sanding to get the bridge down to the right height - it worked great.

This is an insanely cheap guitar tweak. I have a guitar that I bought for half off ($99 + tax) at a big box guitar store. It sounds like the birch x-braced guitars that used to be made by Harmony, Kay, Valco, and others. I use it for playing slide. I've been making some minor mods with the criterion that I spend no more than $25 total. I installed a pickup I bought on ebay over 10 years ago and changed out the saddle and bridge pins with these. I may install the nut when I feel like spending more than 15 minutes on it. The guitar sounds slightly different with the possibly bone saddle and wooden bridge pins--a bit woodier with a tiny bit more sustain. The intonation with the new saddle is fine. The pearlescent inlay on the bridge pins adds a cheezy aspect that I would never want on a "real" guitar but for this one it's appropriate. The saddle is not quite long enough for the slot but it's not noticeable unless you look for it.

I ordered 2 sets at separate times the first set work great. The second set never arrived the package was open and it was empty. Tried to contact them but never got any help. They worked great my acoustic electric Keth Urban brand cheep but sounds good.

Bridge Pins a little small but work;s good. and look's good.
