Overall Comments

Tusq saddles are superior to the plastic saddles commonly used on lower-priced instruments. They have the advantage of low price, and gives one the ability to change the saddle himself (no luthier involvement). To my ear, Tusq is brighter than bone. My current favorite saddle is the West African Ivory, sold by Bob Colosi through www.guitarsaddles.com. However, my guitars are high quality instruments that deserve the best, and I don't mind spending some extra money to make improvements.
