Nut - Gold Tone, Zero Guide Slotted
The Zero Glide® Replacement Nut System borrows the “zero fret” concept to reduce string contact in the nut by up to 93%, increasing tuning stability, playability, and open string tone. It only take a few minutes to install with absolutely no permanent alteration to your instrument. Zero fret wire included (multiple sizes).
See P-GTNN-ZBX for unslotted Zero Glide nuts.
| Comparison | Standard Nut | Zero Glide |
|---|---|---|
| Open String Tone | Absorbs energy. | Fret reflects energy, making the open strings more vibrant. |
| Tuning | Friction causes string binding. | 93% less surface area. More accurate tuning. |
| String Bend/Whammy Bar | Whammy bars and string bends cause the strings to bind in the nut and not return to pitch | Reduces string binding and "returns to zero" after every tug of the whammy bar or bend |
| Durability | Slots wear down over time. | Minimal wear. Needs less maintenance. |
| Installation | Six specific nut files, sharpening files, razor blade, and previous experience. | Sanding block and razor blade. (Slotted model) |
