Bonobo bone for U2 songs?
Only bone should be used for nuts.
Only bone can give you the proper tonal characterics that you require for your style of playing.
Use whale bone for a fluid style.
Use tiger bone for a more aggressive sound.
Use chicken bone for plucking.
Use mammoth bone for a heavy bottom.
Use wolf bone for playing Duran Duran.
If someone ever finds a partly evolved animal this would be ideal for eclectic styles.
Etc?

On an electric, I guess it's just a hard-wearing, easy-to-shape material that does the job well. And probably a lot of luthiers are used to working it. I can't imagine it makes too much of a difference to the sound, but I certainly don't have "golden ears".Here's what confuses me.
Matching a bone nut with a bone saddle on acoustic, I understand.
Bone nut on electric with a steel (whatever metal) saddle?
I've never seen bone saddles for a TOM/ABR/Fender bridge.
Why not?
