"Using TUSQ nuts and saddles makes the overall sound of any guitar more brilliant and rich of tones. You can easily swap old nuts for new TUSQ nuts after fitting them into your guitar. Tweaking the TUSQ products and bringing them into shape as you wish just takes a short time - so one can always maintain the beauty of his or her beloved guitar's sound" - Sven Haack
