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.

Good but...
It's good to actually keep the stability through bending & a little shake on the tremelo bar. It is also close to the original nut slot of the Ibanez AT, but still needs some sanding to make it really close & not too tight or too high in the slot. The not so good part is that the G string comes out of its slot when I make a big bend at fret number 3. I think the standard string slots need to be deeper than they are now.
Recommended nut for Ibanez AT users.

new nut for Fender Squier
With so many Squiers out there I thought it was going to be an easy selection. I reviewed the internet and saw what everyone was recommending, but it didn't make sense as the string spacing all seemed wrong. I had to break down and buy a scale and some calipers to measure what I had and this was by far the best fit, It was about 1 mm to tall and a half a mm to thick. A few minutes with a sanding block and it fits perfectly. I was setting this guitar up for my kid so I also in stalled the graphtech string saver saddles and the string trees. There is no popping of strings or being out of tune as you use the tremolo system. Seems to be running smooth as silk.

Right sized nut for Fender Squire Affinity Series
This was about impossible to find in most of the usual places that sell guitar nuts so I got it directly from Graphtech. It fits great but you will have to do some filing of the slots. Once done, had no problems with binding or guitar going out of tune due to string bends. Great product.
