General

Keeping the components of an acoustic guitar in good working order is essential to its tone and one of the most important parts is the string nut. This little, seemingly insignificant slip of a thing dictates the quality of the intonation and tuning stability as well as the overall tone and playability. The Graph Tech PQ-6114-00 replacement nut has been shaped using synthetic TUSQ and offers a valuable and affordable little upgrade worthy of your beloved acoustic guitar.

The Benefits of TUSQ

Since previously used organic materials like bone and (further back in the guitar-making game) ivory can be pretty inconsistent, synthetic TUSQ was developed as a material that could be manufactured with precision, therefore maintaining consistency. A nut made out of TUSQ also pulls a rich and transparent quality of sound out of the strings and, since it's so resonant, more harmonics and sustain is injected into the overall tone.
