I've tried them all and these are hands down the best compensated saddles I have found.

COMPENSATED OFFSET TELECASTER SADDLE 5/16" DIAMETER - SET OF 3
Great saddles and great value! These are on 2 of my B-bender telecaster, and they hold up better than any other saddle I've tried to the constant friction of the B-string movement. And, definitely improved intonation!

Brass Compensated Saddles
I bought these to replace the ones that came on my Fender American Performer Telecaster. The stock saddles were fine but the string spacing was off at times and I would have to fiddle with it. These new saddles are a huge improvement as they are not only compensated they are grooved as well. No more weird string spacing and intonation is dead on too. The tone of my guitar has also improved with these new brass saddles. Very well balanced sound from bass to treble strings with excellent sustain. Comes with required hardware for installation and swapping them out was a breeze. I had fun doing this little upgrade and it paid off big time, very happy with my purchase from Philadelphia Luthier Tools. Super fast order processing and shipping as well. Great buying experience and will not hesitate to order again in the future. Thank you for the awesome saddles. The tele and I are very happy ?

Compensated Tele Saddles
The two issues this design focuses on are Intonation and string spacing/ or string drift on the old school style saddles. On the subject of the string spacing or string drift, I would say they nailed it. Even with the saddles set to the proper fingerboard radius, the spring spacing is perfect. Sadly, in the attempt to deal with the intonation/ tuning part, this design failed. Each saddle holds two strings and I could only get one in tune. Not recommended.

Classic look, intonation solved
These notched saddles were a perfect upgrade for my MIM Vintera Tele. I’m now able to intonate the guitar, while maintaining the resonance of the original brass.

Compensated saddle
Clever design, great material, I was able to improve my guitars intonation. One of the 3 had the wrong screw included but they responded perfectly and rushed me the correct one.
