ProlinePL2216 Synthetic Ivory Saddle
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
A synthetic ivory saddle blank for acoustic guitar bridges. For replacing a worn saddle or dialing in action on a guitar you already own.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Replacing a cracked or worn acoustic saddle
- Lowering action by sanding the saddle bottom
- Keeping a spare for a gigging acoustic
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Electric guitars, which use metal bridge saddles
- Players who want compensated intonation already cut in
- Anyone unwilling to sand and fit the blank themselves
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Synthetic ivory
Dense composite that transfers string vibration to the top efficiently and sands smoothly without chipping at thin edges.
Detail 03
Sits under the strings
Saddle height sets your action directly. Sand from the bottom only, so the string contact point stays where it should.
Detail 04
White finish
Blends with standard acoustic bridge saddles. Visible above the bridge, so a clean top edge matters cosmetically.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Measure your saddle slot length, thickness, and height before ordering
- 02Not compensated or radiused, you shape it yourself
- 03Sanding paper, a flat block, and calipers are not included
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my acoustic?
Check your saddle slot thickness and length against the blank. Thickness must match closely, since you can only sand a small amount off the sides before the fit gets loose.
02How do I lower my action?
Sand the bottom of the saddle flat, removing twice the amount you want the string height to drop at the 12th fret. Check often, since it cannot be undone.
03Is it intonation compensated?
No. The top is plain, so you shape the string contact points yourself if your guitar needs compensation. Copy the profile from your old saddle.
04Does it need glue?
No. An acoustic saddle is held by string pressure in the slot. Gluing it prevents future action adjustments and can damage the bridge.
