  1. depends on the player - would you have said that to this guy -
  2. Mostly, a brass saddle help lam-topped gutars that are a little muddy-sounding (adds brightness and sustain)... OTOH, sometimes a brass saddle can add too much brightness, making some guitars a bit shrill. Inexpensive enough to try, and easily reversed if you don't like how it sounds, though. +1 Daion Guitars - late '70's / '80's did brass nut and saddle. They used solid Douglas Fir for their tops on their better models and laminate B/S's Brass can sound brash / course - dare I say 'metallic', I replaced a brass saddle with bone and the owner, a flatpicker liked the fuller - sweeter tone (his words).
  3. try DR Rares or if you deaden strings quickly (your body chemistry) try DR Dragonskins - their the same but with a coating. do not shave the braces on your guitars they're good guitars and don't need it.
