Need a new saddle for your Gibson acoustic?

TUSQ represents an ultra-durable artificial ivory material that boasts all the tone-enhancing qualities of traditional bone with a far greater consistency due to its composite construction. Sweetwater guitarists across all styles have taken to installing TUSQ saddles onto their treasured 6-strings to maximize every drop of resonance, harmonic richness, and natural sustain. Furthermore, the PQ-9400-C0 saddle is an excellent upgrade over the straight, non-compensated saddles found on many vintage-style Gibson acoustics, as it provides far superior intonation. Get the most out of your Gibson acoustic with Graph Tech’s TUSQ saddle!
Great Fit for J45
I purchased a Gibson J45 Standard from Sweetwater in November 2020 - wonderful guitar and very happy with it. As the weather changed to winter it began to develop some fret buzz when playing enthusiastically. I loosened the truss rod a little and let it settle in a couple of times but this didn't eliminate the problem. I special ordered this bridge from Sweetwater. It arrived a couple weeks later as advertised. The bridge required a little hand sanding for thickness to fit in the slot as I thought best - remove without need for pliers. I left the height stock, but it can be sanded down to taste. This completely eliminated my fret buzz issue and the action is still quite low. The original is in the case just in case it's needed. I'm very happy with this bridge and my J45.
