Default Anyone changed the saddle on their CA composite guitar?

Just wondering, has anyone changed out the TUSQ saddle on their CA composite guitar and replaced it with bone or something else?
How has the tone changed? And which do you prefer?

Many thanks in advance!

D tuner key went bad on my CA Bluegrass and all tuners are being replaced.
While I'm at it, I'm having the string space widened and a bone saddle added.
I'll let ya know how it goes!

I havent done that yet on my Bluegrass. However was thinking of replacing the fretboard with rosewoood or maybe ebony. Talking to the great Paul Rockwood currently about making the top out of alpine spruce, and maybe the back and sides from Newengland walnut. Maybe even cutting it down a little to om size and adding a whammy bar....
