C&J TOOLING - CUSTOM SADDLES
I've tested a lot of saddles in my quest for the perfect voicing and tone of an instrument. The vintage 3 saddle intonated style from C&J Tooling are in my opinion some of the best for function and sound. I've worked closely with Jim from C&J to find just the right alloys so that these saddles not only help you play in tune better but give you the best choices to "re-voice" your T style guitar. He's one of the only shops that offer the late 50's quarter inch and early 50's five sixteenth sizes in this angled configuration. Fine thread height adjustment screws combined with flat milled saddle bottoms give you improved adjustability. These are hand made on old style milling machines like the vintage variety. Old School is cool! I get a lot of compliments on these parts as used on my guitars and now C&J is making them available to you as well. Saddle sets are offered at $25.00/set plus $6.00 insured postage. Contact C&J tooling at the email address below. Money Order or Personal Check accepted.

Stay posted for more interesting saddles to come such as Rosewood and Ebony. Great for slide players!
All saddles are angled for better intonation.
1/4" cold rolled steel as used in the late 50's. Tone
falls somewhere between classic brass and 5/16" steel. Lively, but not thin.
1/4" brass. Variation on the late 50's theme in brass. Slightly brighter and
livelier. Great for adding some life to a rather dull sounding guitar.
1/4" aluminum. Variation on the late 50's theme in aluminum. Mid's are more
scooped than brass. Nice jangly and lively set.
5/16" cold rolled steel. Classic 1950 - early '51 blackguard tone. Great for
pedal steel tones.
