Default Has anyone tried Martin Liquid Metal Bridge pins in a McPherson Sable?

To me, the Sable could be a louder instrument. I'm wondering whether the liquid metal bridge pins would add that volume in this carbon fiber guitar.

Anyone tried this yet?

I don't mess with bridge pins, changing nut and saddle and that sort of thing. I play with bare fingers and if I need the Sable to be louder, I would just plug it in.

It will be interesting to read other responses...

I've left the Sable as is since I like the tone. I can't imagine that pins would give you the added volume you are looking for, you would likely have better luck finding louder strings ??? or plugging in.
