## Description

graphtech tusq xl nut - st style

Review: Perfect for modern fender necks - Fits height wise perfect, so good In fact on the 2020 Mexican fender neck the string height was perfect. Just needed width and depth adjusting to the exact guitar dimensions I’ve been using these for years. They are so much better than most factory nuts and even some bone nuts. Essential for any guitar
Review: The Nuts - I was bought a lovely looking Fender Player series HH Telecaster for Christmas 2019. It looked good, sounded good but had an annoying buzz when either the A or D string was played unfretted. I did a complete setup, starting with the truss rod, checking all the frets for level and then setting the action to Fender’s recommended height. Still there was an annoying buzz on those two strings. Checking the clearance between the strings at the first fret with a capo at the third fret, it became clear that the problem was with the factory fitted nut. The slots had been cut far too deeply on every string, but the A and D had no clearance at all. After a little research and watching a few videos, I decided to buy a Graph Tech TUSQ nut and replace it myself. Removing the OE nut was straightforward. The nut slot was cleaned and the fretboard masked off in preparation. The string spacing on the Graph Tech was perfect and the slots nicely formed. I had to file off the bottom peg as my nut slot was curved. The peg is there so it can also fit a flat nut slot. The Graph Tech needed sanding a little thinner to fit the slot, which I did with fine wet or dry paper taped to my table. The ends were also slightly too long and these were filed to shape. Once I’d checked the height was spot on by restringing the high and low E strings, the nut was refitted with a little drop of PVA glue and the guitar restrung and left for the glue to dry. I’d love to say I noticed a world of difference to the sound qualities of the Graph Tech nut material, but I can’t. What I can say, is that I found it easy to fit and a perfect replacement for my dodgy Fender item. Well worth the money and a straightforwardv DIY job using the simplest of tools. The guitar now plays perfectly.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this fit a player plus stratocaster with a 12 inch radius**
A: Hi! A Strat neck radius is usually 9.5" - Perhaps you check to see what Tusq nut fits a 12" radius.

**Q: are the nut slots cut to a specific string size ie 9s 10s etc?**
A: This is from the Graph Tech website
" Our nuts are engineered to accept string sets between 9-42 to 11-49 gauges on all electric nuts, 10-47 to 12-53 on acoustic nuts, and 40-95 to 50-105 on bass nuts, all without modification"

**Q: Does this fit a fender classic player 60s strat? Many thanks.**
A: Yes - I fitted one to each of my 2 Strats. Hope this helps!

**Q: what is the radius of this nut? Is it for a 7.25 or 9.5 inch radius? thanks**
A: I had a conversation with their tech support last year. They told me all their precut nuts unless otherwise stated have a 12" radius. I have a very small and very amateur YT channel that I'm doing for fun during lockdown. I'm currently making my own nut out of Corian so I can add more colour to my axes.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product, does not fit a Squier Stratocaster 40th Anniversary!
*by R***E on 7 May 2023*

It doesn't fit a Squier Stratocaster 40th Anniversary. The string spacing is too big on this product (The strats has 33.5mm, this one has 35.18. Still adding 5 stars as I know it's a great nut, just thought about leaving a review for future folks who were wondering if that would fit a Squier Stratocaster 40th Anniversary.
