## Description

graphtech tusq nut - slotted strat style

Review: CAME PERFECT! +AAA - Sealed & New! Great! Will Buy Again! 🤘🔥💯
Review: This was great. Firstly, I got what I ordered. It was packaged, not loose from a bulk shipment. I opted for the regular Tusq not the XL (which does NOT stand for extra large, just sayin') Secondly, I'm not a pro. Or even close. I did this in about an hour in my kitchen! These Tusq nuts come with that tab on the bottom because sometimes the slot in the neck is flat. Only the top of the nut has the arc. If that's the case you leave the tab on and the nut is supported across the flat bottom. I had my old one so I knew I needed to sand off the tab. Sanding this nut was easy. Oh, and don't be fooled by the difference in length. My old one broke off at the sixth string slot so, yeah, its shorter than the replacement. I then sanded the back side a little to make it a tad thinner. I wanted it to fit snug but it was just a little too wide right out of the package. (I just laid the sand paper on the table and rubbed the nut around on it.) Then to lower it a little I laid the sandpaper on the neck of the guitar and went back and forth with the nut to match the arc of the neck. (I think its a 9.5" radius which is pretty much standard these days) The old one looked like it was tapered a little. Thinner on the high end, so I just over did the sanding ever so slightly on that half. I didn't sand it for length. It is a hair wider than the neck. I made the high "E" side flush with the guitar and it was fine for me. I also did not use any glue. The fit was nice and tight. It doesn't fall out when unstrung. I also thought it would be easier to shim if I discovered I had over sanded somewhere. I strung the guitar, played it for a while and am very pleased with the result. Again this was not an "upgrade" this was a necessary replacement of a broken piece. Any difference in sound could be from the new strings, I don't know, but I have no issues with the nut or the process of installing it. A little common sense- make sure you put the wide slots on the low end and the narrow ones on the high!- and being just a bit handy and this is really simple. Had the arc of the new one not matched the old (7.25 vs 9.5) then I would have returned it. I had a hard time finding out what my particular guitar's neck radius might be. Finally I just went for it and it turned out fine.

Na veel schuurwerk aan de zijkanten blijkt dat de topkam te laag is voor mijn Squier strat.
