I'm switching to graphtech saddles in my Carvin CT6, but I'm confused as to which size of saddles I'm supposed to get. It's called a M bridge - tune-o-matic bridge set in body with strings fed through. I emailed graphtech but didn't get any response. Does anyone have any ideas?

I do a lot of tech work and I use a lot of Graphtech parts.

I don't think they have a saddles for the M bridge. But I very rarely work on or see Carvins.

What you have to do and what I would do if I was working your guitar is measure your saddles, saddle spacing and over all bridge measurements. Then see if those measurements match a bridge they do make saddles for.

If not and this would be way easier is just buy a new ResoMax bridge with String Saver saddles already installed.

Just my $.02

Call the guys at GaphTech and ask for their help. They are knowledgable as to what fits a certain guitar.

They did at one time have saddles for TOM bridges, but I haven't checked them out recently. Call the company. They're more than willing to help out.

Thanks for the advice guy. I'm actually just going to buy a resomax bridge for it rather than dealing with switching out the saddles; now I just have to decide between the NVS or NV2

Graphtech rules! I've been putting their saddles on Strats, LPs, and PRS guitars for years. In fact, many times I order a set of graphite saddles even before taking delivery of a new guitar. Sure do save me on strings...

Carvin's got them for that bridge and that guitar- just call them if you don't want to change the bridge.
