Description
Precision CNC machined nylon string nut sized to fit Gibson Custom®Les Paul® model guitars with stock frets.
Made from high quality Ensinger Tecamid Nylon 6/6.
Slightly oversized to accommodate fitting (required) to the individual guitar. String spacing is modern compensated, with equal space between string edges.
The slots are precisely cut for a 12" radius fretboard and 17 degree headstock. Nylon is difficult and time consuming to cut, shape and slot especially when starting from an oversized rectangular blank, these nuts will provide accurate string slots and save time.
Historic Tall Model:
String Spread: 1 13/32" similar to factory
For
1 11/16" nut width necks
Size:
1.707" W x .188" D approx.
Slotted for .010-.046" gauge strings
It's always a good idea to measure your guitar comparing to these dimensions to make sure this is the best model for your needs.
Note:
for historic Les Paul's that have been refretted with fret ends over the binding, the vintage model may be better and will spread out the string spacing
