Product Information
Graph Tech's Tusq XL Slotted Flat Bottom nut (model PQ-5042-00) is a drop-in replacement engineered for Fender-style electric guitars and similarly spec'd instruments. Tusq XL material delivers tonal clarity and sustain improvements over stock plastic nuts, whilst the pre-slotted design eliminates the need for custom fitting. This is a straightforward upgrade path for players seeking measurable acoustic enhancement without luthier involvement.
The nut stands 3/16" tall–verify your guitar's clearance before ordering, as insufficient headroom will require additional filing. The flat bottom design seats securely in standard Fender-spec nut slots, and black colouration matches modern electric aesthetics. Graph Tech also stocks this model in bulk as the LQ-5042-00 ten-pack, a practical option for workshop setups, repair technicians, or players maintaining multiple instruments.
