- Fitting the Saddle to the Biscuit Bridge - Replogle Resos
“A good fit supports the mechanics of the resonator guitar and optimizes the sound”, says Mike Replogle, “and when the parts fit properly together, the complex resonator structure projects tone with excellent sustain and without buzzing or extraneous sounds and vibrations”

- Bone saddle on biscuit resonator? - The Acoustic Guitar Forum
Rosewood works well for biscuits - with a maple saddle I have tried out a lot of different options (probably set-up somewhere around 800 reso guitars) The key to getting a good tone out of a biscuit bridge is simply to flatten the underside of the biscuit on sandpaper and get a nice clean contact with the top of the cone
