The reason for this review is to praise AMS.
We all know Tusq nuts are a great product. If you are in NYC and possibly close by, AMS had this shipped to me FREE in about 16 hours! They are in North Jersey and use Fed Ex. Simply Amazing. In less than 24 hours, I have 2 nuts recurved and already installed.

Buying online can make me have a tough bonding moment with a new guitar. For me it was my first gibson les paul, from AMS. I bought it and it sat in the corner for a while as I just didnt feel comfortable with it. There was no mojo! Finally, I had enough. I bought the tusq nut, cts pots, sprague vitamin q capacitors from ebay, and seymour duncan antiquities. Yesterday I put the new nut on lowered the tailpiece and wrapped the strings. Honestly, this guitar is super smooth! I also use big bend nut sauce from AMS and I just went all gilmour double bends for like 15 minutes and I'm in tune. The immediate effect for me after stringing the new nut was a resonance that reminds me of when I was a kid with an electric and no amp sitting in my bed room just jamming(headstock against the wall for amplification!). If you have no experience with repairs pay for someone to do it. I diy'd it but happen to have a japanese backsaw and new set of chisels, which I had to use. There's a YouTube video by graphtech where they just tap the nut out...totally oversimplified it my gibson nut was welded in there and in had to file it out. Fortunately there are videos for stubborn nuts. Also make sure when you install to set the height properly with feeler guages and sandpaper to take it down(go slow!).
Anyway, it's a good product and I will look into more graphtech products if I need to in the future. Cheers!

I've been wanting to try one of these for a while now,so when the nut on my Gibson Les Paul needed replacing I tried one out.I love it.I had to do a small bit of sanding on the replacement (very little)and it went right in.I am replacing all of the nuts on all of my guitar now.It really makes the guitar sustain longer.Oh yeah!

I've had 4 that were cut into by the strings. I leaned the nut on the guitar was too high. Will see after proper cut nut how this holds up.
