About Guitar Bridge Pins
Bridge pins secure your acoustic guitar’s strings by holding each string against your instrument’s bridge plate. The string curves around and passes through your bridge and 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.
Find the Guitar Bridge Pin for You
We’re often asked, “What are the best bridge pins for acoustic guitars?” Well, acoustic guitar bridge pins are constructed from various materials. Affordable guitars usually include plastic acoustic bridge pins, whereas higher-end acoustic guitars come 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. And how different does each material sound? For the answer to that question, check out our article, “3 Ways to Make Your Acoustic Guitar Sound Better.” We dropped acoustic bridge pins onto a granite countertop and recorded the results. They were very revealing!
Replacing Guitar Bridge Pins
Suppose you’re restringing your guitar, and the pins keep getting stuck. That’s a prime indication of a worn-out acoustic guitar bridge pin. Eventually, all bridge pins wear out and break, so you should inspect your guitar’s bridge pins every time you change your guitar strings.
Swapping your acoustic guitar bridge pins can be a relatively inexpensive upgrade for your instrument.
