Product Description
MADE IN CANADA
The PT-7004-00 is a great option to replace to replace the metal string trees on your your Fender style guitar, or any guitar with string trees. The the height can be sanded down and an extra short screw is provided.
Strings that get stuck when you bend notes or use the tremolo go out of tune. These string trees are made from Black TUSQ XL and are impregnated with PTFE to permanently lubricate the strings and let them glide back into tune after string bends and tremolo use.
Designed to boost guitar performance, TUSQ XL is precision engineered and specially formulated to bring out the hidden harmonics and richness in every note. TUSQ XL is based on the highly resonant TUSQ man made ivory and impregnated with PTFE, the slipperiest substance on earth, to improve the tuning performance of the guitar.
Sold as a pair. Screws included.

Effective
These seem to do the job of reducing friction while maintaining down-pressure over the nut.

Graph tech string trees.
Easy to install seem to work better than the metal ones. Strings don’t seem to get hung up. Easier to tune.

Small Detail, But an Important One!
Over the past three or four years I’ve been really focusing on achieving the best tuning stability and tone I could eek out of my guitars. Although I haven’t played professionally since I left the (secular) music industry back in 2001, I had been a pro musician for the better part of a couple of decades. Over the years, I’d mostly played Strats and Teles (and other Fender variants). Like so many others since 1951, I sometimes had a love/hate relationship with them - 60 cycle hum and tuning stability issues. . .LOL. Graph Tech’s Tusq products have become some of my all-time favourites. The Tusq nuts are great - they’ve always proven to be both tonal improvements and terrific at greatly reducing tuning instabilities. In conjunction with Tusq string trees, you can turn any good S-style or T-style guitar into an even BETTER guitar. I have swapped out all the standard sealed/cast tuners on my Strats and Tele with Fender locking tuners. I also have Tusq nuts and Tusq string trees installed on them. My right hand to God, the subtle tonal & harmonics improvements, AND tuning stability of my Fender guitars is next to perfect! The days of “pinging”, snags and annoying stuck strings are completely gone. Please do not underestimate the small, but important detail of string trees. If you’re already ordering some other doodads from the NextGen krew, thrw in an extra $15 and grab a set of these Tusq string trees. ** I have found it absolutely necessary to carefully sand down the string trees so that they will be the same height as the original butterfly string retainers.
