I started to test different materials (6061 Aluminum, 1080 Cold Roll Steel and 304 Stainless Steel).
and found that they all provided the same superior improvement over the stock string ferrule but because of
the different material composition their affect on the frequences varied allowing you to tweak and lean the guitar to a desired tone to suit your playing style, alter and
improve your current guitars weaknesses.
Although Brass is our standard go to material. Here is how you can expect the different materials to affect your tone:
Brass = balanced tone across low, mid and high freqs.
304 Stainless Steel = increases mid freqs.
CRS Steel = increases mid and high freqs.
Aluminum = decreases mids and increases high freqs.
Once you install one of the TAIPAN TONE Tone Bars you will experience one of the most influencal improvements you can make on your guitar. You will be startled at the difference. Your string to string definition and clarity that you experience in chording and soloing will amaze you. You will also benefit from the increase in sustain they will provide.
