This Graph Tech Black TUSQ slotted nut is for you if you have a Fender guitar or reissue from the ’50s, ’60s or ’70s. With a 7.25" radius, it’s designed to work with a curved for flat bottom nut slot and is permanently lubricated to provide great tuning stability. Just stand off the tab for a curbed bottom. It’s also pre-slotted for a quick and easy install.

The 7.25" fingerboard radius originated in the early 1950s and was used for most Fender electric instruments until the 1980s. In the ’80s, it was changed to a slightly flatter 9.5" radius.

TUSQ XL is designed to boost guitar tone and performance. This precision-engineered nut is made with a specially formulated material that couples the strings' vibrations to the neck and brings out the hidden harmonics and richness in every note. It’s based on the highly resonant TUSQ man-made ivory but is impregnated with PTFE to improve the tuning performance of the guitar.
