Thumbs up Agreed...

Some of the best money you can spend on your guitar is a saddle from Bob.
Great upgrade!

As tough as it may be for me, I guess I can overlook that one character flaw .


+1 on the list of happy customers. Just installed the vintage dyed bone pins on my Hummingbird and hope to get the FWI saddle fitted this weekend.

Poor Mets fans stuck with Pedro whose shoulder is hanging on by a thread and outbid by Boston for our new starting ace pitcher Matsuzaka.

Thanks for the replies yall! Just yesterday I ordered a Bob C. Ivory saddle and invory set of bridge pins for my Taylor. Abolone inlay on the bridge pins. They are to ship today and I should get them middle of the week. I have found a local luthier who is supposed to be the best around these parts and he's going to set up my guitar as soon as the parts get here. Thanks Santa!!

Rick
P.S. I'll let you know what I hear once the job is done.
