This is a question that I am asked quite
often; "What is the difference in tone between magnetic and non-magnetic
steel?" A better question would be; "What is the difference in tone
between stainless steel and cold rolled steel?"
That is when tone change really occurs, when you use a different
material. The non-magnetic
stainless steel
bridge-plate adds to the twang factor, adding highs, mids, lows, and
notching out harsh mids around 3k, while adding harmonics and acoustical
sustain. The magnetic cold
rolled steel bridge-plate
balances out equally, giving the bridge-plate warmth and twang, with
highs, mids and lows being much more equal in value. |
