I personally like the graphite material for nuts, it gives solid tuning stability and clear tone.
They are also super easy to sand/shape. I've used several for my own guitars and those of friends.

Great part, drop-in fit for the TE-70
Martin Krauser 22.07.2018
This was a near-perfect fit for my Harley Benton TE-70 Black Paisley, I had to sand maybe a quarter of a millimeter on each end. The height was great on each string. I've had luthiers do a worse job.
Tuning stability improved dramatically. I also changed the string tees, which are also a factor in string binding during bending. The Harley Benton whose only issue was tuning stability now holds tune like a trained golden retriever dependably holds its own leash. Good girl.
I could be kidding myself since I didn't do a before and after recording to compare, but the tone seems better and the sustain longer. This mirrors my experience using a Graph Tech String Saver nut on a hollowbody archtop, so I think it's real.
I've only had it for a few days, so I can't speak about its durability. Other reviews suggested it can be an issue. I wouldn't have a problem replacing it once every two years if necessary.
I think this part is a cheap upgrade pretty much everyone should do.

Have these on all of my guitars now, appear to affect the tuning in a positive way, not sure i can hear much more sustain as others say they can???
definitely helps with tuning stability and dont get that little "ping" when a string suddenly moves when its been binding to the nut

Works really well

Just remove your old nut, add some glue, pop this nut in, enjoy. This thing works way better than adding pencil graphite to a badly cut nut. Mainly recommended as ceap upgrade for squier guitars

Very useful, but they wear out.
Edgar Blackdagger 29.06.2017
Ever since I put them on my strat and tele, the tuning stability improved more than I expected!
The only drawback is that the treble strings slowly cut through the nut, so they start buzzing at the first frets.
I've got no problem with replacing them every 10-20 months, but if you gig daily and use the tremolo a lot, this may be troublesome.

Smooth nuts ;)
Young-Bin 27.09.2018
Although TUSQ may be plastic, these hold the tone very well.
Most importantly, my strings dont slip and detune when I use the whammy bar on my strat thanks to these!
No more grease for my nuts :)

Great replacement for Harley Benton teles
taffy rob 28.04.2017
Seems like a quality product, but its main selling point has to be its fit - absolutely spot in (including string height) for my Harley Benton tele. Couldn't fault it if I tried.

Very easy to set up, No sanding needed....

I replaced my original bone saddle on my telecaster with this guy. I didn't even need to sand it to replace. All strings have a great hight and the overall experience changed from unplayable to a really nice overall string hight and feel.
