    I swear by aluminum tailpieces for this reason. The difference isn't so noticeable with heavy distortion, but I love what it does for clean tones.

Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.

      Titanium, for that extra zing.

          My Ovation Deacon has a brass bridge and is very bright and chimey in comparison to the Breadwinner models with the nylon saddles. Being a 12 string I would say the brass adds a lot to the tone.
