GraphTech PS-8000-00 Electric Guitar String Saver Saddle Review

I picked up these GraphTech saddles for a project guitar I was rebuilding, mainly because I was VERY pleased with the quality of their string nuts and trees. I paid about $34 for them (shipping included), which is a little expensive for what they are, but still reasonable.

I don't consider this to be a necessary upgrade given that you can buy steel saddles from GuitarFetish or other providers for as little as $13. Either the steel saddles or the GraphTech set are an upgrade over the stock zinc/pot metal ones that come with many cheap guitars and tremolo sets.

However, I should be clear about what bridge saddles will do and won't do for your guitar. The tuning stability is DEFINITELY improved, however, I believe this has more to do with the GraphTech nut and saddles I installed at the same time. Still, there's no denying that these saddles are very well made, easy to install, and the material is extremely anti-friction, which prevents both tuning issues and string breakage. Even if the saddles aren't the sole cause of my improved tuning, it's hard for me to complain about them in any way!

Then there's the issue of "improving" tone. I do think that bridge saddles are an important component in tone quality, since they are one of the key contact points for the string. That being said, you aren't going to notice a dramatic "improvement" in tone quality just by changing the saddles. Steel saddles work very well (and obviously have a more "vintage" appearance you might be looking for). I've heard that steel trends toward "brighter" tones, while the GraphTech warms up the tone a bit, and there might be some truth to that.

So, if you're having issues with tuning, string breakage, or feel like your guitar is too bright, those might be some reasons to try these out. You certainly won't regret it if you do.
