Does anyone know what materials and percentages are used in the manufacture of TonePros bridges/tailpieces/studs and inserts? I find that I prefer solid machined metals (brass, aluminum, steel, etc.) rather than potted metals. What is TonePros process?

TPs are zinc alloys.
I prefer Faber or Philidelphia luthier. They make aluminum bridge and tail piece.
A zinc alloy tail piece weighs 3 ozs
An aluminum tail piece weighs 1 oz

Tone pros are precise and well made as well as locking. It's up to your tastes.
