Callaham 3-Saddle on my ‘96 American Standard
I’ve been wanting to put brass saddles on my 96 American Standard Nashville B-Bender. I love this guitar but didn’t love the saddles. I found the perfect part on Callaham’s website, and called them up only to find they had discontinued it. In a series of fortunate events, I found 4 listed on reverb earlier that day by one of their suppliers and bought one. They all sold out in a day! After drilling a hole for the pull-string and setting the action and intonation, this thing is awesome! The tone difference isn’t extremely noticeable but it does have a little more brightness with each picking. Acoustically it is actually a little more noticeable as far as resonating throughout the rest of instrument.
Anyway a worthy upgrade and hopefully some other company produces a comparable quality part to the Callaham.
