It's a game - changer for any guitar enthusiast! • Self - Lubricating Magic: With a material 500% more slippery than graphite, it prevents string binding and tuning issues, ensuring smooth play every time. • Versatile and Customizable: Comes in pre - slotted and blank options. You can easily sand it to your desired shape and adjust slot sizes for different string gauges. The pre - slotted nuts fit a wide range of electric, acoustic, and bass guitars. TUSQ was developed to overcome the inconsistencies of traditional natural materials like bone and ivory used in guitar nuts and saddles. These natural materials have soft and hard areas that can affect tonal response. TUSQ solves these problems and offers many other benefits. It can be sanded down using 240 - 400 grade sandpaper. The 6 - string pre - slotted nuts accept various string gauges: 09 - 42 to 11 - 49 for electric guitars, 10 - 47 to 12 - 53 for acoustic guitars, and 40 - 95 and 50 - 105 for bass guitars. If your gauge is larger, you can modify the slots with the right nut file. Remember, while Graphtech products aim for a close fit, each guitar is unique and may need minor adjustments. When choosing a nut, measure carefully. If unsure, go slightly larger. Call us if you need help. The nut is crucial for your guitar's playability, action, and tone. A poorly fitted nut can cause tuning, sustain, and performance problems. Reasons to replace your nut include damage, wear on slots, low action causing string buzz, changing string gauges, or if you're unhappy with your guitar's tone.

The pre - slotted ones are made to fit a wide range of electric, acoustic, and bass guitars available today.
