What is the Difference in TUSQ Materials?

TUSQ

TUSQ nuts have a rich tone without the inconsistency found in ivory, bone, and other natural materials. Bone and ivory have hard and soft spots (grain) throughout each piece, hampering the consistent transfer of vibrations to the guitar top. TUSQ nuts are designed to transfer the right frequencies more efficiently from the string to the guitar body.

Best for Acoustic Guitars.

TUSQ XL and Black TUSQ XL

TUSQ XL and Black TUSQ XL nuts are designed to boost guitar tone and performance. These precision-engineered nuts are made with a specially formulated material that couples the strings' vibrations to the neck and brings out the hidden harmonics and richness in every note. It is based on the highly resonant TUSQ man-made ivory but is permanently lubricated to improve the tuning performance of the guitar.

Best for Electric Guitars and BASS.

    Perfect fit!

    I installed this on my Fender Tom Delonge signature Strat. It came with a bone nut which was okay I guess but it seemed to bind up sometimes and I had to fiddle with the tuning every single day. This nut along with the string saver saddles and string trees solved that problem for me. It was very easy to install as well. I only had to sand it just a tiny amount for it to slide right into place. I put a small dab of wood glue on it and let it sit for a while and then when I restrung it I used nut files to get the string heights perfect and these nuts sand down very easily so be careful when you’re working on them. I love the look, feel and sound though. Definitely worth the upgrade of you ask me.

    Perfect Fit

    Left handed guitar parts are sometimes hard to find. I serached far and wide for a left handed black telecaster nut withoit success until I landed on the Graphtech site. No problem, they had one. It was just what I wanted!

    Great product

    A definite upgrade to any guitar that has those crappy oem nuts on them. I have installed a few on my own guitars and they have opened up with better tuning,playing and sound.
