Coming in glass, chrome or brass materials; these different options offer fairly specific sounds. Glass is known for having a warm tone that accentuates the mid-range harmonics for a richer quality. Metals, on the other hand, sound far brighter and generally enhance sustain. This is why they’re preferred for lead guitar work.
