Best Yamaha Acoustic Guitars With Bone Saddle in 2023
Here are the top Yamaha acoustic guitars with Bone saddle. This material is one of the highest quality you can get. It provides excellent sustain and tune stability if cut well. The only disadvantage is that it's an organic material, so it's not consistent. Two different bone nuts, even if made from the same bone, will probably sound slightly different. However, bear in mind that this is only relevant when playing open strings.
