Product Information
The saddle plays a crucial role in maintaining the structural integrity of your instrument and facilitating proper sound transmission. Over time, saddles can become worn, loose, or damaged, potentially leading to issues such as cracks in the top plate or compromised tonal quality.
Our saddle replacement service involves the removal of the existing saddle, careful preparation of the area, and the crafting and fitting of a new ebony saddle tailored to your instrument's specifications. This process ensures a secure fit and helps prevent future structural issues.
This service includes:
Assessment and removal of the existing saddle
Cleaning and preparation of the saddle area
Hand-carving a new ebony saddle to match your instrument
Precise fitting and gluing of the new saddle
Final adjustments to ensure optimal performance
Availability: This service is available at our Billinghay workshop.
Post-in service: Instruments can be posted to us at the owner's risk. All shipping costs must be covered by the customer.
Packaging guidelines:
Loosen the strings slightly before packing
Wrap the instrument in acid-free tissue paper or silk before adding padding
Never allow bubble wrap to touch the varnish directly
Use a hard case or a well-padded box
Clearly label the package as FRAGILE
