Finally, the
breakthrough you've been waiting for. Now you can have it all - the great
tone of TUSQ, classic good looks AND permanent lubrication. If you love
the look of a vintage white nut, but you keep going out of tune when you bend
strings or use your tremolo, then TUSQ XL is just what you need.
TUSQ XL is designed to boost guitar tone and performance. This precision
engineered nut is made with a specially formulated material which 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 impregnated with Teflon to improve the tuning performance of the guitar.
Other nut materials have a tendency to bind the strings in their slots. When
you are tuning your guitar you might hear the tell tale "ping" of the
strings releasing under tension or have difficulty keeping your guitar in tune
when using a tremolo or doing string bends. There are many temporary solutions
to this problem, but wouldn't you rather a permanent one? TUSQ XL has Teflon
lubrication impregnated all the way through the material (Teflon is the
slipperiest substance on earth...500 times more slippery than graphite.), so
you never have to worry about string binding at the nut again. Since the Teflon
is impregnated right through the material, it doesn't matter if you sand or
file to a different shape, it will keep on working. So go ahead and use that
tremolo or do massive string bends with the confidence that you will stay in
tune.
