Bridge Pins
I bought my first classical guitar about 1 month ago a LaPatrie Presentation, laminated rosewood B&S with solid cedar top. I will be changing the stock strings in the near future and was wondering what type of bridge pins do most of you use. I assume the stock pins are plastic and, if they are, I am thinking of changing them when doing the strings. Suggestions please.

Sorry, but I'm puzzled by your question. The LaPatrie Presentation is a nylon string classical which has a tie block on the bridge, not bridge pins. Are you sure you referenced the right guitar in you post or are you referring to the saddle?

Sorry, you can tell I haven't change the strings on the classical yet. No bridge pins on a classical. I'm so embarassed.

Dont be embarassed, it was just the lack of costume with classicals.
You may want to change your saddle for bone, if its not already, though. Some guitars benefit a lot from the change. |

Saddle Material
The nut and saddle on all La Patrie guitars are tusq, according to the La Patrie website.

saddle
Hello .....New guy here... I have a La Patrie.....I picked up at a second hand store....
Anyways I replaced the saddle with a bone saddle and OMGosh.... It turned up the volume a lot .... I was amazed ..I even shaped and set the action and set intonation myself. I'm an amateur with my guitar's ... still learning ... But for the 60$ I have into this guitar.. It's a beautiful piece... But nothing compared to my 3 other steel stringed beauties ! They all have bone saddles and from what I've read there better then tusq .. |
