This
listing is for ONE (1)
LOW
or HIGH Profile
STRAIGHT
Integrated STEEL String Saddle Insert
The
LOW profile saddle will be sent unless you
include
a note that the HIGH profile saddle is preferred.
The
HIGH profile saddle is useful for guitars that require
extra
shims to raise the string action to the desired height.
Saddle
measurements are shown in the photographs.
If
you have a Takamine classical / nylon string guitar
with
factory installed electronics this is not
the
correct integrated saddle for your instrument.

included in the sale.

The
Takamine integrated saddle is designed
exclusively
for Takamine G Series instruments
that feature a STRAIGHT Saddle and
have factory installed electronics.
If
your guitar does not have electronics this is not the right saddle for you.
~
The
integrated saddle is compensated so intonation is
maintained
up and down the fretboard.

The
Takamine integrated saddle is designed

saddle components are available from AddictedToToneInc
~
The
material used for Takamine G Series guitar saddles is ABS
(Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) Plastic.
The
colour of the raw material used to make ABS is translucent ivory to
white.
The
most important mechanical properties of ABS are impact resistance and
toughness.
Stability
under load is excellent with limited loads.
A set of
Bronze wound acoustic guitar strings can vary between 130 – 215 lbs
of tension depending on the gauge
and
other factors of the string so ABS is a good choice of material for
the moderately priced G Series instrument.
Even
though ABS plastics are used largely for mechanical purposes they
also have electrical properties that are
fairly constant over a
wide range of frequencies, again making it a good choice for a cost
effective acoustic guitar saddle.
Pro
Series Takamine guitars feature bone saddles.

in this fast paced electronics driven world we lose touch with the

welcome your questions and speaking with you personally.

RETURNS
& SHIPPING
AddictedToToneInc
does not accept returns.
The
item listed in this ad is designed to improve the tone
of
your Takamine guitar or for replacing a defective component.
I
can help you diagnose the problem with your Takamine system.
Please
contact me before you order an item you do not actually need.
AddictedToToneInc
does not accept returns because of a third parties
ineptitude,
specifically “repair technicians” that do not
know how to properly diagnose
defects
of the individual components used in the Takamine electronic system.
AddictedToToneInc
checks each component for defect
when
the new product is received from Takamine and
verifies its
working condition once again before it is shipped.
~
If
its new, why is it tested?
I
am asked this every once in awhile and in a world where internet
sales are largely automated and there is no human interaction it is a
very reasonable question to ask!
The
item you are purchasing is inspected and tested before they are
shipped to make absolutely sure everything is working 100%
Time
is taken to check the new Preamps when they arrive from Takamine and
then pass through a more thorough audio and electronics test before
being packaged and shipped.
Non
electronic parts like Tuners, Nuts, Saddles are careful inspected and
tested; any part that requires assembly is assembled.
Many
stores do not possess a working knowledge of the Takamine equipment
they are selling and simply send merchandise without examining the
item being sold.
As
a guitarist, artist and former touring musician I understand how
important this equipment is to the individual purchasing it; most of
my customers are casual players but for some of my clients the part
is needed for work and making a livelihood so an extended downtime
makes for some potentially hungry days!
My
endeavors are not approached as a mere “numbers game” or
how many boxes of product I can move, for me it is much more
personal, most of my clients work very hard for their money; I
appreciate and respect the fact they have chosen me to do business
with.
Takamine
does a fabulous job with their electronics and there are very few
incidents of manufacturer defect; very, very few incidents but it
does happen.
It
is much easier for me to check the product for the customer before it
is sent rather than wasting time discovering a defective part after
it has shipped; this is how I have always operated; it takes more of
a commitment but my clients appreciate it – they know they can
trust me to do the job right!
The
testing process was originally started for the sake of my over-seas
patrons but I quickly realized the value of it for all my clients!
Maybe
I am just “old school” but this is the way I feel it should
be done.
I
have designed, created and employ special testing equipment for the
Takamine preamps because it is your reputation as well as mine is at
stake when you walk on stage!
AddictedToToneInc
hosts a special Facebook page that specializes in the science and use
of the Takamine technology exclusively for our Takamine clients.
Thank
you, William “Bill” Sutherland / AddictedToToneInc
