Hello again from MusicianAtHeart! Plastic guitar nuts are notorious for slipping within the neck slot. Glue shrinks as it ages and loses it's grip.  And the nut MUST be locked in the neck slot or the result will be unstable tuning, broken strings, etc. Our series of v-shaped grooves in the bottom of the nut, grab the neck slot and hold on tight. And that improved grip also results in enhanced transfer of the acoustic energy between the nut and neck. More harmonics, greater projection. 

Compensation for Superior Tuning!

Guitar intonation is an often overlooked procedure which, when done properly, helps you get each string properly tuned.  This means that your guitar sounds great regardless of whether you're fretting or playing open chords. How many times have you been playing, sounding great, when you bounce into an open C chord and suddenly the tuning sounds terrible? A properly compensated nut will help correct this, and give you just enough extra scale length to help achieve the proper intonation that you need.

Our nut is made from solid Bone and slotted for perfect string placement.

Our nut measures as follows. 

Length - 41.7mm (1.642in)

Height - 4.7mm (0.185in)

Thickness - 3.4mm (0.134in)

EtoE Length - 33.3mm (1.31in)

Please be sure to check your current Nut to make sure that this will fit. Need a different size? Want partial compensation? Full compensation? Lefty version? Something else? Just let us know! Happy to help in any way we can. Thanks!
