I will concede that there will be a change in tone if you go from stainless steel saddles to brass. From what I've heard, I'm happy with the ones I have.

However I seriously doubt that the change in tone you heard was due to the fact that they are 3 saddles instead of 6. My own impression of course. If there is a difference due to the design and not the material I wonder if it's worth the price.

In any case, from previous threads (and I've read them!) people seem split on this topic. The most important thing is what you hear with your own ears and if doing the mod makes you happy.

I remain open to the idea, but for now my Am Std will stay stock and I respect your mods!
