What are the String Saver and TUSQ Materials in Saddles?

String Saver Saddles

String Saver saddles are made with a unique combination of materials made to enhance tone and dramatically reduce string breakage. Each saddle has the String Saver which is impregnated with PTFE, the slipperiest substance on earth.

The PTFE in String Savers eases the grip between the saddle and string, spreading the stress over a greater portion of the string, just enough to drastically reduce string breakage.

Our patented String Saver Originals are made entirely of our String Saver material and give you a very balanced tone across the spectrum. People who were breaking one or two strings a night have contacted us after using String Savers and are amazed that they go weeks and months without breaking a string!

String Saver Classics are made with an extremely high quality steel saddle with our patented String Saver material inserted in the string ramp. String Saver Classics preserve the classic look of a metal saddles while freeing you from the problem of breaking strings.

TUSQ Saddles

TUSQ Saddles have a rich tone without the inconsistency found in ivory, bone, and other natural materials. Bone and ivory have hard and soft spots (grain) throughout each piece, hampering the consistent transfer of vibrations to the guitar top. TUSQ saddles are designed to transfer the right frequencies more efficiently from the string to the guitar body.

    Very happy with these for my Fender Telecaster (American Professional II) ✅

    Happy to recommend & confirm that these are a perfect fit for my new Tele.

    One obstacle was that the screws didn't quite fit in some of the bridge holes. I don't think that this was GraphTech's fault; I think that it's some variation in Fender's manufacture. Holes for some screws were fine, but a couple were too tight. I noticed that one hole was elliptical—perhaps the bridge is dipped in chrome and not enough had run off, here...? Some of the screws' threads got damaged, but GraphTech are sending me replacements √√√

    I slightly enlarged one of the holes with a tile drill-bit, which worked without any damage to the bridge. But I have since bought a 3-mm, tapered reamer [https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B002F9MOG2?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details], which I'll use when I'm due my next string change.

    Worth the upgrade

    Better stability and durability. It has also improved the tone. This is an upgrade that must be done.
