    Personally, i seriously doubt it will do much at all...
    Very few Guitar hardware manufactures use high grade metals...

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    Which opens up the whole tone debate thing again: bone nuts vs steel vs brass vs unobtainium, yet bridges, stop tails and saddles are cheap metal...

    Bone nuts do give a much warmer tone than steel or brass, tried it out and can confirm it..
    Brass does give a rather nice bright tone, works really well for slide set ups.
    Steel works a treat on Dobro type Guitars, ads to that amazing jangly sound..
