Just my 2c.
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
There's maybe a subtle slight softening of the sound but not in a bad way and I like the tone with them installed. I also had a graphtec nut and string tree installed and that guitar happens to hold tune incredibly well, even with whammy bar use.
So they're the right practical choice for my main gigging guitar that I can be totally confident in for live use, but I haven't bothered with my other guitars

On a Les Paul type, I quite liked the GT saddles, they made it sound less "plinky" when picking near the bridge. On Fenders, I've been less keen on them, they make the sound duller. I still have a set on a modern Tele but I'll be putting the metal saddles back. One day.
This is all unplugged, by the way, I don't know if it translates into the amplified sound at all. They're good enough for Robert Cray and Kenny Wayne Shepherd, apparently.
...which should be quite novel on a Les Paul
I imagine jazz players would love them on a semi acoustic though.
