  • Great tone-improving choice for most 1.3T guitars!
Color: White
I've used these pins on a lot of guitars, and I always hear a huge improvement over plastic. Bone pins will add a bit more nuance than these do, but 200% of the money for a 5% tone difference just isn't worth it at times. These pins are size 1.3T, which means they have a .203" diameter (or a hair more) just under the skirt of the pin, with a 3 degree taper. It seems that MOST modern guitars have 3 degree pins, although there are a few exceptions. It's pretty easy to see the difference between a 3 and 5 degree pin though, so if you're unsure there's a difference they are probably the same. These pins may be very slightly tight in some guitars - or in some specific holes - and in that scenario I'd recommend using some 320-600 grit paper to sand each pin until it fits barely snug in the hole you're fitting it to. You do NOT want the pin to be tight when the skirt of the pin touches the wood of the bridge, or the head of the pin sticking up over the bridge. When this happens, it is possible for the bridge to split between the pins if the humidity raises very much; not to mention it can also make the pins very difficult to remove in general. When properly fit, the pins will fall to the bottom of the hole and may be just a little "sticky" at the bottom when you push down on it. If you have to push really hard and the pin doesn't go all the way to the bottom, it is not fit properly. Because these pins are all injection molded and therefore very consistent in size, I like to use them as a guide for reaming out inconsistently cut bridge pin holes. On some guitars I've put these in, one of two will fit nicely at the bottom but all the rest will stick up somewhat. When this happens I like to use the Grizzly 3 degree bridge pin reamer (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00012YFS0/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) to very slowly (1-2 revolutions at a time) enlarge the holes until all the pins fit the same. This reamer only has one flute, so it makes it much more difficult to take out too much material and permanently screw up your bridge. I've frequently used these pins in a lot of Alvarez and Takamine (Japan) guitars. In the first photo I have these pins installed in an Alvarez ABT610E Baritone guitar, and although the taper was fine, I did have to greatly enlarge the slots going through the low B and E pins before the strings would fit. Nonetheless, it was a great tone improvement that I immediately noticed. Same thing goes for the vintage Takamine F365S in my second photo, although I had to ream those pins quite a bit due to the varying depth of the holes. Thanks for coming to my TED talk - I hope this helps everyone better understand bridge pin fitment. ... show more

  • From 3 stars to 1 Update. Made My Martin HD-28 look cheap.
Color: White
I must have gotten the bottom of the barrel. I ordered one of the two sets left in stock. I was already familar with the improvements and differences of bone, Tusq, and brass pins over plastic pins and knew going in that in theory Tusq could increase sustain a little and yet not cause an unevening in the tone and balance I bought the guitar for in the 1st place. Bone is not always consistent and you can get a clinker now and then but I've personally never had issues with any bone pins. They came packaged just fine. I ordered the black dot model to replace and at least be similar to the Martin plastic pins that look great but a couple were starting to bend/warp from string pressure. However, cosmetically the dots were uneven in size and one had no dot at all. The Tusq were a step up from the plastic pins in sound and I was satisfied. But, if you are paying over $25 and you can get bone for half the cost, bone would have been the better deal and a lot prettier. The fit was just fine on 5 of the strings but the low E6 could not be locked down properly and so of course the more you tighten the higher the pin sits. I had to rat out the groove a little more to allow the Elixer low E .54 to find a home and lock in, so I won't be sending these back but they are ugly and make my HD28 look bad enough that it torques my jaw. To fix the issue I guess I'll order another expensive set and hopefully between the two sets I can cull 6 similar pins for the HD28 and use the ugliest on my lesser Martin. Sure, its more about the sound but Tusq does not improve the sound over bone (if at all) that much that makes them worth $25 and makes your guitar look bad. In fact, maybe I'll cut my losses and go with bone. Very disappointed with the guy who's in charge of black dots! Also the groove-cutter-guy could put some thought in string gauge compatibility. Also with Martin Guitar Company for not putting bone pins to match saddle and nut at factory. Martin's been using plastic pins for a long time in their best guitars so maybe they know something about bridge pins and there's a good reason they use plastic (besides saving a penny)? Maybe too much more sustain is not good and messes with the sound of the next chord/note? Not to my ear anyway... Note: I'm not an expert guitarist (not even close). I've been playing a lot of different acoustics for more than a few decades. I can say this; I have a Martin with brass pins and they make that DC-16gte a better guitar for how I use it (travis picking, hard strumming, once in a blue moon lead lick). It sounds nothing like it did when it was new with factory setup. I had previously tried bone but not Tusq but preferred the extra sustain and ring brass provided and also liked the sound when amplified (I generally use d 'addario .13s on it). Since new, its also had a complete fret job, bone saddle and new nut installed. The point is, I think each guitar has its own voice and dinkin' with bridge pins, saddles, etc will change it, maybe to something worse and you could lose that original magic it had when you bought it. I'd advise you wait until the guitar has some age on it and needs a little kick to get it started before you change anything from original. Changed from 3 stars to 1 because they've apparently lost my return AFTER I dropped it off at UPS and money refunded. Now they are telling me they are going to charge me again??? Can they do that??? We shall see and I'll update again. ... show more

  • fast shipper, item as discribed.
Color: White
Theses are replacement pins for a Recording King acoustic . I just need to turn them down in diameter to fit proper. They are a 3 degree taper as are all GraghTech pins . The plastic pins that are stock on this guitar fit too tight . And I don't like plastic pins.

  • Improved Tone and Sustain, From My Ibanez
Color: White
After many months of trying to decide if I would sell my old 1976 Ibanez 2846 Acoustic or replace some key components, I decided on the latter. After reading many reviews and watching several Youtube videos, I decided to go with the GraphTech line of products, and the TUSQ Guitar Bridge Pins were a key component in my upgrade, along with a TUSQ Nut, and TUSQ Bridge. The tone and sustain of this guitar is amazing now. I had thought and wrongly so, that the sound I was seeking could be had by replacing strings and finding the right brand, and size to make this guitar come alive. Strings are important, but like a well tuned engine, all the parts make it perform at its peak, and the GraphTech components such as the Pins, Nuts, and Bridges will take your guitar to the next level! I look forward to rebuilding my Gibson Les Paul, and a Strat SSS I play with the GraphTech parts as well. ... show more

  • Big improvement in tone
Color: White
I have two very similar Yamaha dreadnought guitars from the mid-1980s, and one sounded significantly better than the other. I had already replaced the strings and bridge saddle on the one that sounded weaker, so I thought I'd replace the bridge pins just to see what would happen. Wow. Thicker, fuller tone, more sustain, and now it sounds better than the other one. ... show more
