TUSQ by Graph Tech Nut 42mm Flat B0ttom Strat Nut PQ-5042-00

Nice nut, needs some filing using proper nut slot files to get the desired action (but that's a given) fit nicely in my Aria pro series strat style guitar, did have to sand it down just a hair, using a flat surface to bring the width down.

Bought this nut to replace the original nut in a 2000s Squier SE Strat with 22 frets (full thickness body). The old nut came straight out with little effort leaving a clean nut slot. This was an almost straight replacement, it was just a tiny bit too thick to drop in. The old nut was 3.17mm thick, the Graphtech nut was 3.22mm; it just needed a bit of sanding to take off 0.05mm. Then it dropped in for a snug fit, no glue required to hold in place. String spacing is perfect, and no slot filing required, string heights are pretty much spot on. No other shaping required. Performance is excellent so far, just as expected.

Needs sanding to fit but not much

When will this company show the measurements for the nut instead of the packaging? 😂 I've used Tusq on almost every guitar upgrade when needed. Brilliant quality & do what they say it does. On this occasion I found it was nowhere near high enough & rather than shim it that much I ended up using a brass nut instead because due to the measurements only saying 43x6 etc or showing the package size instead I took a chance with the height. Please add the height & E to E string spacing so we know EXACTLY what we're buying please!?

Fantastic! My old squire now holds tune so much better. The tuning is now so much more stable that I have turned back to having a floating bridge. Before it was a plastic nut that seemed to grip the strings even with nut sauce on. Super easy to fit, you will need a bit of sandpaper and a flat surface. Most difficult part is removing the old nut, did this with a Stanley knife and a very small flat head screwdriver. Took me half hour to get it swapped out and adjusted. Great.

What can I say, they are the best for a reason.

I have fitted Tusq nuts to all my Guitars and to those of friends. My Les Pauls have also got white Tusq saddles. My Telecaster and Stratocaster have the Tusq nut. What I get is a very noticable increase in Tone, Sustain, and overall "more alive" feeling with greater touch sensitivity. They bring out MORE of what the guitar has. They make an already great sounding guitar awesome, and a dull one great. Although I'm not a luthier, I am able to fit them myself with a minimum of tools, but would advise anyone who isn't confident with their ability to do it themselves to get a professional to do it for them. Look at it like this....... You've made a big investment in your guitar/amp etc. why not spend a bit more to get the VERY best from it. I am in no way connected with anyone who makes or sells Tusq, I'm a Guitarist who just wants others to gain from my own experience and pass on what I Know from actual personal experience. Happy plucking all.

This is the second Tusq nut I've installed. They really make a noticeable improvement to the tone of the guitar if you have a cheap plastic nut. I used this on an old Squire. Far better to spend your money on a good quality nut than locking tuners.

Aunque no era la medida el producto estaba muy bien

Used as an upgrade on a Peavey Predator, fit was almost perfect just needed a slight sanding on the edges. I had no extra height, so listen to the product description and check that it will be tall enough.

Alles bestens gern wieder

耐久性がどうとか、硬度が牛骨より劣るなどと言われてるようですが、実際どうなのかは分かりません サンドペーパーで厚みを削った感じでは硬さがあるようで少し時間がかかりました fender系ストラトに付けましたが予想以上にチューニングが安定、アーミングしてもほぼ狂いが出なくなりました 巻き弦の音質がブライトな感じになって生音が大きくなった ただ、全体的にはやや雑味のある音色のようにも感じます 音の違いはギターにもよるので一概には判断できませんが確かに響きは良くなってます 牛骨のピッタリサイズが見当たらなかったのでこれを購入したのですが、特に不満は無し 結果、正解だったようです

La marque référence... Facile à placer sur une guitare entrée de gamme d'importation, juste un léger ponçage nécessaire.
