Ebony bridge caps

I can't imagine it would have any effect on sound.  A cap less prone to
expansion and contraction and which resists string indentation would be the
primary goal for selection of material.  Epoxy laminated maple seems like a
pretty good choice in that respect.

Hello!

 

I was wondering, why are you using ebony for bridge caps? Do you expect it
to be stronger and last longer? Does it have an influence on the sound?
