Anyone have a ebony nut and saddle on there ukulele? i read somewhere that they wear down really easy and you have to change it a lot. Is that true or do they hold up good? And how do they sound?
BIGDB, check out my thread "experimenting with martin s-1 saddles" Dismount
They hold up OK for me and have nice sustain, even rosewood which is very traditional but (I consider it) not very durable has performed well on my Kelii.
I'd give them at least 5 years/30 string changes.Do you think you'll ever have to replace the cause that's what I'm worried about
There are an awful lot of 75-year-old vintage instruments out there and in use that are sporting original ebony saddles and nuts, I think.
