Harley Benton PartsBridgepin Set Bone Ab Eye

I am surprised by the looks of these pins. The website pictures do not do them much justice. They are very well polished and the Abalone Eye is just amazing on each one of them.
The click they make when you play with them is very pleasant.
They all needed proper fitting, but it was an easy task, with some 280 and 400 grit sandpaper. They look great on my Fender Paramount PM-1 Standard.

Overall, very good quality and consistency across all 6 pins.

I have a Gibson J-185 and wanted to replace the plastic ones by some nicer ones.
What I realized was that they didn't fit perfectly on the pin holes, what might cause the pins to pop out when you are applying tension on the string during the first steps of tuning.
The other point that bothered me a bit at the beginning was that the hight of the pins were higher than the original ones. When I placed my hand to rest on the top of the pins I could feel a huge difference. That does not bother me any more, I got used to that.

I was surprised by the low cost and good quality of the Bridgepins of Harley benton.

Thomann's services were great as allways.
The product on the other hand not so great.
The color (for some is important) is snowy white.
The material seems to be fragile. 3 pins from both sets Thomann send chipped/broke under the presure of the ball end and 2 of them were already slightly chipped.
The size is large for most guitars and because of the material I suggest you avoid sanding down the pins so the option you have is to adjust the bridge holes (don't).

even with engine room ears I hear a difference over factory plastic pins. Not much, but it's clearer and more distinctive

Great for pins upgrade. They fit perfectly on my takamine acoustic guitar and are also very beautiful. I'm not able to tell you about the bone quality but they seam to me a very good product.
The guitar sounds louder.
I recommend them

Very happy with those - good quality for an affordable price

These pins does not have the same thickness. I had to sandpaper 1 to get it fit.
Sound is good
