Guyker 43mm Stainless Steel Ball Adjustable Guitar Nut - Adjust Bridge Nut Split Regulation Replacement Parts Compatible with Gibson Les Paul LP Style Guitar

Although this was advertised for Gibson-type guitars, I’ve put it on a Strat. It has the option to be adjustable, with tiny Allen screws to raise it off a little plate underneath… however I’ve dispensed with that and simply installed the nut itself without the plate and the screws… and it’s effectively a half-price LSR nut. You do need to cut away a couple of mm of fretboard however, so be very careful! Also it’s 43mm wide, so check the width of your nut before you install it, not all strats are the same:)

I build my custom guitars with a zero fret.....If you don't have a zero fret this will put your guitar way out of intonation. Before you take the old nut off, measure the nut to the first fret. This HAS to be the same when you put this new nut on, which it will not be. You'll have to remove the very end of the fretboard by about 3mm or so, so when the string goes over the balls, it will be the same distance from the first fret as your old nut. Don't try to fake it and you will have a great ball bearing nut. Odd, this unit comes with absolutely NO instructions if you're a newbie.

Es unos milímetros más ancho que la cejuela de la Gibson por lo que la única forma de instalarla sería modificando la guitarra. La descripción es engañosa ya que asegura ser compatible con Gibson Les Paul y recalco esto porque no pone epiphone u otra marca, dice Gibson. Las medidas que aparecen son poco claras, en definitiva es una estafa.

Das Teil funktioniert im Prinzip gut, wenn nicht die scharfen Ecken und Kanten wären. Und wenn der Schlitz für den Saitendurchlaß der E-Saite ( griffbrettseitig ) breit genug wäre. Nun, für Bastler ist das kein Problem, man kann den gesamten Sattel auseinandernehmen, entgraten, etwas abrunden, und dann paßt alles. Für meinen Selbstbauhals mit 17 Zoll Griffbrettradius perfekt! Und nicht vergessen: das Griffbrett am Sattelende um 3 mm kürzen, damit mit der Mensur alles stimmt. Bei einem Neubau ist das ja kein Problem und nachträglich auch kein Hexenwerk😀

I’m writing a review to help some save their guitars from some weird suggestions about this nut. It was a slip replacement for my LP style, took minutes to install, looks and plays great, take the old one out, clean the site , a drop of glue for the base string the guitar and adjust the hight (very minor adjustments to the saddle might be needed) there is absolutely no need for cutting and filing…etc, please don’t cut anything, if your guitar’s nut is the same size you don’t need crazy modifications…. No it will not mess with your scale and intonation beyond the minor saddle adjustments.

This nut is the best nut I’ve ever installed on a guitar ( so far ) I’ve had it installed for just about a week as a replacement for another type of roller nut that I installed previously. This nut holds intonation and tune after bending the strings really well it was easy to install on my Les Paul custom.. actually a slip in replacement.. I’m ordering one for my SG today
