These are amazing
I honestly did not expect much when I ordered these. I bought them for the size since it was needed for an older Ibanez EX. The tremolo block was bad so I replaced that as well with a brass block. But these are the finishing touch.The sound quality is so much better. Sustain and tone are greatly improved. The smoothness of the strings thru the saddles as well as the adjustment screws is dead on. Definitely surprised me in a good way.

Attractive and Functional!
I got these saddles for my Squier Affinity Strat, which has the 2 1/16" string spacing, and they are perfect for it. Each saddle looks to have been made with great care and precision. The intonation screws, springs, and height-adjustment "grub screws" are all nicely machined and work smoothly. Note that two of the saddles are equipped with shorter grub screws, intended to be used with the high "e" string and the low "E" string, on the theory that if you're following the radius of your guitar's fret board when setting string height, those would be the two strings requiring the least upward height adjustment. The remaining four saddles are equipped with longer grub screws. These saddles are a great value, and look really attractive on my Squier Affinity Strat.

Very clean looking set of saddles. Perfect for replacing the low-end pot metal ones.
I bought these to replace a set of roller saddles that were rattling. I'll eventually solder them in place and use them for another guitar but I didn't want to deal with it at that time. They're very clean looking, no sharp or rough edges, nicely chamfered. Easy to install, the screws don't bind up in the holes like other similarly priced saddles sometimes do. The only thing I have to remark on otherwise is that two of the saddles have shorter height adjustment screws than the others. I can't imagine what purpose that serves. The user is the only one who knows their appropriate action and the manufacturer has no way to anticipate it. Luckily I have a huge box of spare guitar parts, including springs and screws. I don't understand the reasoning behind some of these negative reviews tbh. I think they might not understand that saddles come in various dimensions, or maybe their bridge plate is mounted crooked. Most people don't know how to set up a guitar so that puts the manufacturer at a disadvantage from the start. Someone with high action, bad intonation, a bowed neck, bad frets, poorly cut nut slots who has never matched their saddle radius to the fingerboard buys new saddles thinking they will fix everything and gives a bad review when they don't. I'm just letting anyone know, you can spend your money confidently because these are a quality product.

Night and day difference
These saddles are fantastic. The bridge I originally bought had sharp screws and I really didnt like playing my strat. These made all the difference in the world.

Replaced on player plus strat and they were a simple swap, setup required
Overall, really good product a simple swap out almost a perfect replacement on my player plus Strat and an hour later I had to set up perfectly in the action and the sustain is actually amazing. 100% a good product. 1st pic before 2nd pic after

Great value
I used these on a Squire '72 thinline reissue telecaster because Fender's stamped saddles suck. I really wanted roller saddles, but I'm cheap, so here I am. I wanted new saddles because the screw heads on the stamped saddles stuck up so much, I'd hit my strumming hand and figured I'd end up bleeding if I didn't do something.They are advertised as stainless steel, but they are not polished up like stainless can be. They have more of a dull color (this isn't a bad thing, but I somehow expected them to look like the chrome saddles they were replacing).The intonation springs around the screws are different than Fender's were. These are the same diameter (think of a clicky ink pen spring. The Fender springs got wider, so that you can compress the Fender spring more if needed, whereas these springs only compress so far. This hasn't been an issue, nor do I see it becoming one.The screws are recessed into the saddle block, so I don't have screw heads in the way of my strumming hand.Note that when changing saddles, you can mess up the setup / action of the guitar. What I did to keep from having to set it up again, was take off one saddle, adjust the height of the new saddle to match the height of w the string rides. Rinse and repeat 5 more times. The saddles are different heights, so remove one, set height and install, then move to the next saddle. I also set the intonation screw as close to the location of the old one (you want the last point where the string is touched to be the same, not length from back of saddle to bridge).Overall, they were a great value.Be careful as they come in multiple widths. Make sure you get the ones that are the same width.

Not what I expected.. but it's starting to grow on me
I'll let you in on something.. these are made in China (not Korea as advertised) and although they're supposed to be stainless steel, they're not ferromagnetic which makes me question whether they're really made of stainless steel - maybe they're made of aluminum? (after I saw a handful of reviews saying these were non magnetic, softer than expected and that they weren't finished, I still bought them hoping those were one off bad experiences). There has been no attempt to finish them in any way, but with some wet and dry sand paper (went from 400 to 3000 grit) and a lot of elbow grease, I was able to get some sort of reflective surface (I didn't use polishing compound). They're guitar saddles, they're metric and will fit M3 screws for both the intonation and the height adjustment screws. I ordered 10.8mm and that's what I got. They seem more weighty than the chromed stock saddles that I had, but I don't have objective measurements. They probably work fine. The cosmetics aren't what I was hoping for but perhaps buffing to a mirror finish may help.I initially left a 1 star angry review, thinking that I'd been duped into buying aluminum saddles made in China, but the change in my guitar's tone is richer and I'm getting more harmonics.. the saddles can't take all the credit since I switched out the stock 6-screw tremolo bridge for a SuperVee Bladerunner with a brass tone block. I've also learned that some stainless steels such as 304 aren't very magnetic, but who knows what these are. So the review has gone from a 1 to a 3 star.

Superó mis expectativas.
Dudé por algunas reseñas sobre el producto pero, cuando las puse y las ajusté, me sorprendió cómo todo está hecho a la medida. La guitarra suena más sin estar conectada al amplificador, supongo que habrá que mover la altura de las pastillas para sacarle más provecho a las silletas.

Made In Korea!!!
I trust not North Korea lol... Excellent. As good as Fender's if not better. Solid + accurate + easily adjustable = perfect intonation & great tone. Highly recommended.

Great but need a bit of filing!
I had to file these down a little with some very very fine sandpaper - but since then I have had no trouble with strings snapping!
