I fitted a set of brass pins in my Lakewood- a guitar which I bought as one of the first they made some years ago- it always had a brilliant tone but lacked something in terms of resonance. The brass pins were fitted really as a cosmetic exercise when the originals became discoloured for some reason. The result was amazing and its like having a new guitar - BP's may not be everyones cu of tea but as they are reasonably cheap well worth a try
