Gotoh In-Tune BS - Compensated Brass Saddle Set (set of 3)

Excellent replacement saddles on my Squier 40th anniversary vintage telecaster. Ordering easily done, shipping prompt..

I am very pleased with the fit and finish of these saddles. I like the way they sound too.

I bought a T-style guitar that is fantastic except for the steel barrel uncompensated saddles, so I ordered this set as an upgrade. I like Gotoh products and felt confident that these brass saddles would be an improvement and I was not wrong. They fit my bridge perfectly and easily adjusted for intonation as well as giving my Tele a richer tone.

These are very good saddles. Helped with intonation and the brass has a very distinctive tone compared to the stock MIM saddles. Two minor issues there mostly cosmetic - the saddles are quite big and have a bit of a modern look to them, which may clash a bit if you’re going for a more vintage look. Also the screws are super long and have way more travel than you would ever need. They look a little silly and if you were to set the saddles too low, the screw might actually stick up above the strings which wouldn’t be good. I’m that case could chop them down to size yourself if you had to though.

Terrific affordable saddles that fit the vintage ashtray tele bridge perfectly with the advantage of string slots that keep everything in line even with lots of string bending and without the weird angled saddles that allow the strings to migrate all over the place--these look so much cleaner and do a reasonable job with intonation, of course this is subjective based upon the gauge strings one chooses to use and whether or not a wound "G" string is preferred.
