UST -
Pros: Very feedback resistant, great for loud band situations
Con: (1)Generally do not sound natural at all. They are the source of the term "quack" in that they sound like a duck quacking. (2) because they are sandwiched between the saddle and the bridge, they can, and often do, negatively impact the the tone of your unplugged guitar.
SBT -
Pros: (1) Can sound quite natural. (2) Many are very small and lightweight and have very little, if any, impact on the sound of your unplugged guitar.
Cons: (1) are more susecptible to feedback, not recomended for loud band situations.
Hope this helps,
