Default Newer model Guild bridge pins SIZE???

Hello,

First-time poster here.
I just bought a new Guild D-240e. It is a fantastic guitar but I wanted to upgrade to a set of bone bridge pins with abalone dots to match the abalone on the headstock and rosette.
Does anybody know what size pins I need?
Thanks very much in advance!

Best to just ask Guild? They likely have spare parts for the U.S. made guitars and can tell you if they will fit their imports.

Hi Shandy, It's going to be a 3 degree pin although the diameters (under the skirt, fattest part of the shaft) vary wildly on these from about .199" to .210" ...so you'd need either a 1.3T (.203") or 1T (.210") ..the 1T being more common on newer guitars. Unfortunately these are not very well standardized.
