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.

    Ibanez AG95K

    This nut came the closest to what I needed for my AG95K. Quite a bit of sanding needed. The original plastic nut was binding making tuning difficult. This nut also spread out the string spacing which made the guitar much easier for me to play cleanly. It does put the E strings closer to the fret board edge which might be an issue for someone with a more aggressive picking style. Great for me (finger style) and tunes up nicely now.
