Graph Tech TUSQ Classical Guitar Tall Saddle Classical Ivory

The Graph Tech TUSQ classical guitar tall saddle improves the intonation and tone of your nylon-string classical or flamenco guitar. With its compensated design, patented TUSQ material and taller saddle height, you can achieve better intonation across the fingerboard along with a balanced, resonant tone.

Achieve More Accurate Intonation Across the Fingerboard

The compensated design of the Graph Tech saddle counters the typical sharpness on the treble strings and flatness on the bass strings that occurs with non-compensated saddles. This results in excellent intonation across the entire fingerboard, allowing you to play in tune through all ranges. The compensation also enhances the overall playability, making it easier to produce clean tones.

Experience a Warm, Balanced Tone With TUSQ Material

The saddle is constructed from TUSQ, a patented synthetic bone material by Graph Tech that provides a warm, balanced tone. TUSQ has a density and stiffness similar to natural ivory, resulting in excellent acoustic properties that bring out the natural resonance of your classical guitar's top. The material also has anti-static properties to limit unwanted noise. Overall, it delivers a beautiful tone.

Added Height Projects Your Sound

With its taller 0.39" height, the Graph Tech saddle gives you enhanced volume and projection compared to a standard classical saddle. Your melodies will come through louder and clearer in solo or ensemble playing situations. The additional height also aids in preventing fret buzz.

Subtle Ivory Color Matches Light Wood Aesthetics

The ivory coloration integrates seamlessly with lighter rosewood or maple fingerboards for a cohesive look. Graph Tech's proprietary finishing process ensures the saddle has a smooth gloss finish. Pair it with lighter classical or flamenco guitars for an esthetically pleasing accent.
