Replacement saddles for the petrucci tremolo

[D.K.]

Hi, guys and gals!

Can someone please please tell me where in Germany I can get replacement saddles for the vintage tremolo that is installed on the pet?

Fact is, I want to put them on my 20-th silo instead of the original bent saddles. I tend to like the pet-saddles a lot more and feel that the bent saddles affect the tone of the guitar (especially unplugged). That's probably just me, but hey - they are used on the pets and all the piezo models anyway, so why not try it out on a 20-th?

Tell me what You think about it and maybe give me some advice as to where to get those things, thanks a lot in advance.

You can get solid steel saddles for your guitar. EBMM probably would not sell you JP saddles for your guitar. Talk to your dealer, if you have one.

Not sure what saddles are on the JP, but you can certainly order the block saddles like are on the Axis (maybe you can get the JP ones as well if they're different).

I've done some A/Bing on my guitars and I prefer the vintage saddles. To my ear they're a bit brighter ... more "zing". But some people prefer the block saddles. To each, their own.

Email EBMM customer service and they'll steer you towards the German distributor who can order the saddles for you.
