The PQ-4000-00 is an excellent option for upgrading or replacing the nut on just about any guitar, bass or stringed instrument. It's been partially shaped with a superior radius so most of the work has been done. All you need to do is the final adjustment and grooving. It's a common nut for Gibson guitars as well as many other acoustic and electric guitars.
The PQ-4000-00 is also available in a handy luthier's pack of 10 (LQ-4000-10).
TUSQ nuts and saddles have 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 consistent transfer of vibrations to the guitar top. TUSQ nuts, saddles and bridge pins are designed to transfer the right frequencies more efficiently from the string to the guitar body.
