Waverly Bone Guitar Bridge Pins with Black Dot Inlay, Slotted, Set of 6

Very beautifully made bone bride pins. These are expertly machined. I love the natural, unbleached color. It really complements the spruce top of my guitar and the cream binding very well. This is one of the only brands that makes unbleached bone pins with a plain black dot. Everyone else makes bleached ones with an abalone dot, which I have on another guitar of mine and while it looks nice, they don’t compare to the aesthetics of these waverlys.If the pins are too big for your bridge holes, you can sand them down to make them fit. I would start with 220 to get it most of the way and finish with 320 to smooth it out. Fortunately for me, these were the perfect size for my Alvarez AD60 dreadnought. If anything, they were slightly loose, but they seem to be holding the strings just fine.The sound is what you’d expect from a bone pin but I’ll admit it was hard to tell because this is a brand new guitar and I put brand new strings, and it already has a bone nut and saddle so noticing the slight increase in tone was hard but my guitar sounds fantastic either way.

Slots are narrower than stock Martin pins I wanted to replace. Would not secure 6th string and barely held the 5th on a light set of Martin acoustics on my 0-28VS. Ended up using my Dremel tiny grinder to widen the slot on the one pin. All good after that.

I like the quality of Stew Mac products

Its very good
