Normally, I'd ask this at Harmony Central's guitar tech forum, because the luthier who moderates it gives good advice. But I haven't been able to log in there lately - probably thanks to some "upgrades" they've done to the site.
I recently switched to bone bridge pins. They're a big improvement for the wound strings - more clarity, volume, and sustain - but the B and high E sound shrill and zithery.
So I'd like to find different pins for those two strings and am leaning toward a pair of wood pins. I've seen boxwood, ebony, rosewood, and snakewood (whatever that is) for sale online.
How do they compare? What's your advice?
Thanks!
