Guitar Bridge Pins 6pcs Pure Brass Endpin for Acoustic Guitar 6 Strings Nail Pegs Fixed Cone, Replacement Parts with Bridge Pin Puller Remover & 5 Guitar Picks - Kimlong

One of the original plastic bridge pins went missing while the guitar was away at college with one of my kids. They looked pretty sharp, and I know some people believe brass pins improve sustain and tone, so I decided to give them a try. After installing them and tuning the new strings, I played and re-tuned (ah, the joys of new nylon top strings) for a couple of hours. Personally, I can't say I noticed any change in sustain or tone, but I've not been the primary player of this guitar for a few years. I'm playing with classical strings, so a difference may be more noticeable if you outfit your rig with steel strings. That said, I really like how they look, and I like how substantive are. As a bonus, my bridge pins are now bright and shiny like my tuning pins. The extras that came with the bridge pins—the picks and the pin puller—they really are just extras, in my opinion. I'm always glad to have some extra guitar picks, and the pin puller works and was useful. [Believe it or not, I've been playing for more than 40 years and I've never used one before today.] I think I'll keep it around. These brass bridge pins are, in my opinion, worth the price even without the included extras. They are well-machined and have a fine, polished finish. Installation was no different than installing the original plastic pins. They were a perfect fit.

Looks good. I will have to get on my guitar

I have a current model Epiphone PR-5E acoustic (electric acoustic) guitar and these pins are too narrow and DON'T FIT (they slide out and cant hold the strings in). The fact that these pins are narrow and will not fit ALL acoustic guitars, should be explained in the description.

They were a little bit small but they worked okay they look really good

Pins are too short and too small in circumference to stay in older used guitar holes. If your holes are old and worn out… these pins just won’t bring satisfaction… sure they are gorgeous but you will need to think about the girth needed for the old holes…. Thats all… if your guitar is newer they might work just fine… mine is old and dried out! You need a beautiful new piece of moist…. Anyways you get the ideas…

Brass pins. Looks great.

Very small, may not fit most guitars

These are advertised as guitar bridge pins. They are solid metal, yellow metal at that. Whether it’s actually brass is anyone’s guess, but that’s not the real problem. The problem is size. And more importantly, taper. Bridge pins are effectively standardized because bridge holes are cut to a known fit. You don’t casually enlarge those holes. Once you cut them wider, that wood is gone for good. That’s not an “adjustment,” that’s damage. These pins are simply too large. The listing shows a 0.21-inch top, which tells you very little. What it does not show is the taper profile—and that’s where it all goes wrong. The taper widens too fast, so the pin seats early and still stands proud of the bridge by roughly three millimeters. That leaves you with three bad choices: Live with pins sticking up like fence posts Grind down solid metal pins (not a reasonable task for most players) Force them in and split the bridge because “pins are all the same size” They are not all the same size. Anyone who’s cut or repaired a bridge knows that. This listing encourages exactly the kind of mistake that turns a cheap part into an expensive repair. If these fit your guitar by accident, you got lucky. If they don’t, they’re useless—or worse. The material doesn’t matter when the geometry is wrong. And the geometry here is wrong.

Pretty impressed with the quality for the price. Nice that they include a pin puller and the picks are actually usable. These won't completely change the tone of your guitar but they're definitely an upgrade over cheap plastic pins and they look super cool too!

nice touch for my guitar, handy little pin remover included, pins are made well

One of the bridge pins does not fit for E-6th string it keeps coming lose and I’m missing three of five guitar picks that was supposed to come with it.

I got these to replace missing ones on a guitar I found at the thrift store. They were less expensive than bone options and I thought they'd look nicer than plastic which is probably why you're here. As others mentioned, they're a little small and wanted to slip during tuning. I just held them down with my right hand while tuning with my left, and once at tension they're in for good. I can't comment on it they change the ton, as I never heard this guitar with other bridge pins but I just don't think that is very likely. They certainly look cool though!
