This 5012-00 is a perfect option to replace and upgrade the nut in Strat Tele-style guitars that use 12" radius nuts.

It will work in both a flat bottom or curved bottom nut slot due to its ingenious design, just sand off the tab for a curved bottom.

It is pre-slotted to make for a quick and easy install.

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.

    GraphTech TUSQ XL ... is the only nut I buy now.

    There's a lot to recommend GraphTech's chemical composition. Consistent tone, lubricating properties, plus all the size and style offerings. The little bottom nub giving you dual options for your flat or rounded nut slots, it's a very useful touch. Yes, it's slightly more expensive and it takes a lot longer to get from Canada to the US East Coast but you do get what you pay for ... a high quality product you can count on.

    Buying from Graphtech directly

    I needed a certain nut, It was not a common piece so Amazon, ebay, Reverb and the big online music stores didn't have it. I checked with Graphtech's website and there it was. Good price and shipped quickly. Another plus is that on their website you get more info/details that may be needed for a perfect fit. A happy ending!

    The best.

    The only nuts I use. TUSQ is the best material out there. They sound better and wear much longer. The best upgrade for any guitar, or bass for that matter.
