Well, the pin holes kind of are pin homes. 🤣

No but it was only 2 months old when I bought it from a local. His kid quit lessons.

@jerseychicadee Have you owned it from new? if not they may have been reamed out at some stage.

Pin holes were too big. I just saw what my auto correct did

I was shocked the pin homes on Roadie were bigger than the pins. They almost dropped through the top!

@rinny51 The Wood tones have stayed in tune on my Martin better than anything else.

@shysue I will try a set of the Bluegrass strings on my Blueridge at the weekend, I have just fitted my new bone bridge pins

and put my old strings back on the guitar.

@jerseychicadee I fitted the bone pins, initially they were a little big for the holes, rather than make the holes

bigger on the saddle i sanded the bridge pins slightly to make them fit.

Ive noticed they’ve gotten richer after a couple years of days. I tried to put the bone pins on Roadie but the holes are way too big. Guess I’ll put the on Baby Blue when that time come. I have a set of brass pins here I might try next string change.

@wjssavhotmail-co-uk Haven't put 'em on the Recording King yet. I've kind of been neglecting that little guitar since I got the Alvarez. I will do it eventually though.

I was playing my Taylor again the other day and it has the Country Woodtones on it. Just sounds better every time I play it!
