High performance saddles for Strat Style guitars that Dramatically reduce string breakage.

"I like String Saver saddles because they save my strings from breaking...I've been using them now for at least 10 years, if not longer, and I've noticed a significant decrease in string breakage...I hardly ever break strings anymore.  I'm so much a fan of the Graph Tech product that I'm actually going to be including them on my Signature Series Stratocaster that's coming out very soon.  That's a good testament to the quality of the product".

Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Reprise Recording Artist

String Saver Original saddles are made with a unique combination of materials made to enhance tone and dramatically reduce string breakage.

How do they work? A string resting on a metal saddle binds and locks the string in place. As the string vibrates, it stresses the string on a very specific point producing metal fatigue and then string breakage.  Each String Saver saddle is impregnated with Teflon, the slipperiest substance on earth. The Teflon 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.  Teflon is 500% more slippery than graphite and is impregnated throughout the String Saver material, so its lubricating properties will never wear out.  For string breakage reduction the difference is dramatic.  Strings that last and last, no matter how hard you play...we guarantee it!

What do they sound like? Metal saddles have a pronounced 2 KHz treble spike that dominates the tonal spectrum. String Saver Originals have a more balanced tone, with highs, mids and big open lows. You will also notice an increase in sustain by up to 25% over brass saddles and 15% over steel.

String Saver Originals™ are made entirely of our String Saver material.

How do I choose the correct saddles? For Strat style guitars first check the E-e spacing at the saddles by measuring according to the diagram below. Then establish if your intonation screws are centered or offset and if offset, which way.  Lastly, if you have a Fender Elite style with L shaped saddles you'll need to choose String Saver saddles with an open back end to allow for string clearance. If you are using a B-bender or have some other custom application, give us a call.
