What's holding the string in the bridge (pressing the string to the bridge)? What is the point of contact for the string and bridge? The lowly bridge pin.
In a good fitting bridge/pin system the pin has almost as much contact with the string as the bridge. Only makes sense to me that the pin material is a factor in tone.
