Guitar Bridge Pins:
Bridge pins secure your acoustic guitar’s strings by holding each string’s ball end against your instrument’s bridge plate. The string curves around, passes through your bridge, then runs over the bridge saddle. It’s important to ensure that the string’s ball end is firmly anchored to the bridge plate. Otherwise, the string will slip and cause the pin to pop out of the bridge. And it pops out fast " fast enough to put an eye out!
EBONY BRIDGE PINS:
These ebony pins add a classic look to your guitar. What are the best bridge pins for acoustic guitars? Well, acoustic guitar bridge pins are constructed from a wide range of materials. Lower-end guitars often include plastic acoustic bridge pins. Higher-end instruments come equipped with wood, ivory, metal, TUSQ, or bone pins. Each material offers a different tone. Higher-end materials yield better sustain, increased clarity, and added volume. They are fairly unassuming in appearance, but still offer a nice improvement over factory-installed plastic pins.
