Description
• What's TUSQ? TUSQ is a revolutionary material for guitar nuts and saddles. Unlike natural materials like bone and ivory, it offers consistent quality. This means you'll get a more reliable tonal response across the nut or saddle, enhancing your guitar's sound.
• Precision - Engineered for Perfection: All TUSQ nuts are precision - engineered and formulated to improve the instrument's performance. It's self - lubricating, 500% more slippery than graphite, preventing string binding and tuning issues. Plus, it boosts harmonic sustain across the whole tonal spectrum.
• Versatile and Easy to Customize: TUSQ nuts come in pre - slotted, blank, and saddle slab forms. The pre - slotted nuts fit a wide range of electric, acoustic, and bass guitars. If your string gauge is different, you can easily modify the nut slots. It's also easy to sand down using 240 - 400 grade sandpaper.
Please note that while Graphtech products aim for a close fit, some minor alterations may be needed. When choosing a nut, measure carefully. If unsure, go slightly larger. A well - fitted nut is crucial for your guitar's playability, action, and tone. Signs you may need a new nut include damage, wear in the slots, low action, or a desire to change string gauges or improve tone.
