Please measure your current nut, if the height is more than 7..5mm then you can also use the acoustic nut which is 9mm high, it is just more rounded at the back than the Les paul type nut.
A nut replacement is one of the most simple but effective ways to improve the tone of your instrument.
Ox Bone has a higher density than regular plastic or synthetic bone, providing improved sustain and clarity.
Bone also gives greater tuning stability in comparison to plastic, as well as being much more durable.
Every guitar is different so you need to adjust the height by sanding the bottom of the bone saddle/nut on a flat surface with a piece of sand paper or on a belt sander. If your saddle height is too high you could have intonation issues, if it is too low you can have fret buzzing issues, please research how to get the correct height on a bone nut/saddle. At Valley Sound we also have a roller sander tool which makes the process easier.
