How can I tell what my nut/saddle is made from? I've read ALOT about replacing synthetic nut/saddle with bone. Is there a way to test? Thanks Chris Nielsen |

Hi, You can put a match flame to a small scrap and if it smells like burnt hair it's bone. You can also put a very hot butter knife to it and get the same results. plastic will melt. BUY from a reputable source and you will get what you ask for. walter
