Musiclily Pro 44mm LP Guitar Bone Nut Flat Bottom for USA Epiphone Les Paul Electric Guitar,44.07x4.98x9.30mm (2 Pcs)

Pack of 2 guitar nuts were perfectly suited for my guitars. After a little sanding and shaping, the nut is nice and snug and perfectly stable without glue (NOT recommended, I just didn't have the correct viscosity of Superglue for the job, but they will be getting glued in very shortly). The nut slots are not cut very deep, so the strings are held a good distance from the fretboard and will allow for plenty of wear. This means little to no string buzz on the lower frets, but if you need the slots a bit deeper they can easily be filed deeper with a nut file. If you're replacing a nut by yourself, be advised there are no instructions included,so you should already know what you will, and what you may, need to do. That said, I would still advise caution, the nut is more delicate than I anticipated, and will not withstand rough handling, so go gently. If you think the fit is a little tight, but you can gently tap the nut into place, you are wrong, it WILL break (trust me, it will break). If the fit is too tight, sand the nut down some more (always on the back side) until it fits properly. DO NOT force it into place, the fit should be snug rather than tight and it's not meant to be hammered in (apart from anything else, it makes it much harder to get back out again when it eventually needs replaced). These are perfectly good for the purpose they are designed for, when they are back in stock I will definitely be buying more. You never know when you will break or wear out a nut (and you will do eventaully), and I have another, brand new, guitar where the nut slots have been cut too deep at the factory. I don't want to use the old Superglue and Bicarb trick, at best it's only a temprary repair, so I prefer to just replace the whole nut. It's only a fiver for 2 nuts at the end of the day. Curiously, the decription states the nut is made of bone but the packaging stated it was plastic. However, the nut I broke did not break the way plastic normally does, it had no felxibility in it, so I think they are actually bone nuts.

Good value easy to fit if you know what you’re doing!

Great value

Awesome

Fitted in perfectly with a Squire affinity telecaster. Now sounds much brighter

I had to sand the bump at the bottom off as well as a little bit from the sides. The width was perfect and I just need to polish it with the four sided nail buffer. Looks great and sounds much better than synthetic nut material.

These nuts are 1 mm too narrow for Epiphone les paul and the string slots are cut for a wider neck guitar so a waste of money. I could adjust the string slots but I might as well have started with a blank nut. Fitting a 1mm shim wasn't worth the effort. So they ended up in the bin.

I just order the wrong one for my strat, doh!

This is a copy of Tusq 5000-00 but it's bone so it is 1/4 the price and sounds better and you don't inhale plastic when cutting it. You inhale the essence of the beast. The diagram is dumb, it shows 35.5 mm E to E but it's the outside of the slots. Standard measurement for string spacing is from the center of the slots. So it is 35.1 just like the Tusq it's based on. It's a perfect width for a Charvel. The stock Tusq for those is about 35.3 which puts the string a little too close to the edge 35.1 is better for that but it still feels like it's extra wide, as most 43mm aftermarket nuts are 35.0. I also think the pre-cut slot radius greater than 9.5 which is good because that's how it's supposed to be in the end if you've done a good job. Any competent manufacturer would do this instead of matching 9.5 exactly. Tusq does that and it's just dumb. I just wish they'd omit the stupid center nub that adapts the nut to a flat slot. NOBODY would ever buy a new nut just to have it not sitting flush on the floor of the slot. Another thing Tusq does wrong.

Buena calidad. Instalada en una Les Paul haciendo alguna modificación.

Deux sillets en os très bien usinés et parfaitement adapté pour les guitares Yamaha de série LL ! Je suis très contant car cette une dimension rare que l'on trouve difficilement ...

Bien que 44 mm, les saignées sont trop large pour ma guitare "Vintage". Heureusement que le sillet est suffisemment haut pour le retravailler et refaire le passage des 6 cordes. C'est bien de l'os et pas du plastique.

Didn't know these were made in China. Just a personal preference not to buy anything from China if I can help it, and would gladly pay extra for something made in the EU instead. My fault for not asking prior to purchase but There are 2 nuts in the package, plus one guitar pick. I'm just really disappointed these things come from China, because who knows what they actually are made of (dog bones? some radioactive material?). 2 Stars because of the China thing. 5 Start if these were made in the EU instead.
