Does anyone know if changing the saddle material will improve sound quality? I've heard that changing to a bone saddle will improve the overall sound of your guitar. Don't know what material is used on my Malibu SCE acoustic, but I assume it's plastic. And would you need to change the bridge pins, too? Or, can just changing the bridge pins alone give better tone?

Thanks for any advice and guidance in this area. I'd welcome any thoughts and suggestions, and I'd appreciate hearing about your experiences, too. Happy New Year!

I've only read that changing the height of your saddle can make the sound of your guitar a bit different.

The material can effect it too, as well as the bridge pins.
