TUSQ® : Elevating guitar sound with precision engineering

TUSQ®  delivers optimal frequencies from guitar strings to the top, resulting in a richer and fuller tone that guitar makers and players love. Unlike traditional bone and ivory nuts and saddles, which can be inconsistent due to natural grain variations, TUSQ's man-made ivory is precision-engineered under high pressure and heat to efficiently transfer vibrations. This innovation produces deep, resonant lows and bright, bell-like highs while eliminating soft or dead spots. Made from 100% organic polymers, TUSQ®  components are free from animal by-products and ensure consistent performance in every piece. Experience harmonically rich tones without the drawbacks of natural materials with TUSQ® .

How does it sound?

TUSQ® delivers a rich tone, crystal clear bell like high end with big open lows and significant increase in harmonic content and harmonic sustain. Increased harmonics equals more richness and character in your tone. Its the difference between a four piece choir and a twelve piece choir singing every time your play a note.
