My Lester DeVoe Negra will look something like this maybe not as much flame.
Handmade three hole BridgeBoneBeads
I just ordered 8 of these for my Casa Montalvo Flamenco Negra Guitar. Looks like worth trying. only 18.00 on Ebay. 19.00 on the above line. Just click the title and it will bring you to www.bridgebonebeads.com
Handmade three hole BridgeBoneBeads - An enhancement in guitar performance
Precision drilled BridgeBoneBeads are hand-carved indigenous bone. The manufacturing process involves ten different drilling and shaping steps, plus many inspections before it becomes a BridgeBoneBead.
Eliminate string dings - slipping strings can decrease guitar value with soundboard damage behind bridge
Cut string change time
Eliminate string tie damage on bridge inlays
Adds the mechanics, convienence and safety of a 18 hole bridge; without drilling holes in your bridge
Increases string angle on saddle (see diagram B). Helps overall response of guitar with an increase of string contact area on back side of saddle. Also adds string stability to a saddle without string grooves.
Tie your strings away from the guitar!
Brings a unique visual character to the bridge area.
BridgeBoneBeads hand made bone string ties are most condusive to improving natural sound transmission
Please note: With an increased string break angle at the bridge, the guitar will have a better, brighter response. This simple change can deliver incredible sound improvement. Perhaps this improvement will allow the change from high tension strings to regular tension strings. This is important for those who are concerned about practicing fatigue and ease of performance. Reduced string tension also reduces stress on your instrument. Many users have made the switch - try it!

Lester DeVoe started to make my Flamenco Negra today. Five more
months to musical bliss and joy! I spoke with Lester Devoe today after seeing my clients and what a wonderfull way to end the day. I have know about Lesters guitars since 2000 Thomas Muchaud told me about Lester and then I found out Ottmar Liebert played Lesters gutiars and when I heard a few from folks that I had meed. I was sold they sound beautifull. Its a 3+ year waiting list and my guitar is now on the bench and being made. It will be a Flamenco Negra with a wider neck 57-59mm nut Madagascar Rosewood sides, back, and fingerboard. flamed neck with friction pegs.
