This one saved me some time but was still a good bit of work to get just right. First of all, the measurements in the description are flipped. It's actually 9mm high and 6mm deep. This was the only pre-slotted bone nut I could find with the 9mm height that I needed. 42mm is the correct length. I measured the E to E string spacing at 34.5mm, which in my opinion is a bit short. This left me with 3/32" of distance from the edge of each E string to the edge of the fret's bevel at the first fret. This is slightly cramped compared to most 42mm nuts but not a deal breaker. I prefer 1/16" distance for this spec (recommended by StewMac as well). Keep in mind all guitar fret bevels are slightly different so YMMV.As others have mentioned, the factory slots are too narrow to accommodate a standard 10-46 string set. I did not verify 9-42 but imagine this is what these slots are cut for. This is pretty lame if you ask me, but if you are prepared (as you should be) with nut files it's not too big of a deal. I forgot to measure the radius of the slot bottoms, but I'd guess it's around 12 inches.After widening each slot to the proper width and confirming the proper angle and take off at the leading edge of the slot, I sanded the base of the nut to achieve the proper height. I like to use a 12"x12" tile for my sanding surface. I start with 120 grit and then finish with 220 and finally 320. I recommend sanding down to a point where your low E has about .015" of clearance, measured between the top of the first fret and bottom of the string while fretting the third fret (feeler gauges are helpful here). Depending on the radius of your fretboard, this should give you about .010" of clearance at the high E (if you kept the nut flat while sanding!). Now you can finish the slot heights with your files. For electric guitars I recommend a final clearance of .008" for the low E, tapering down to .003" for the high E.Overall I am happy with this nut. The material is on par with other bone I've used for ease of shaping, as is the quality of tone. I wish the E to E spacing was slightly wider and that the factory slots were sized for a standard 10-46 string set. Good luck, nut making is really an art! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Correct (exact) sizing for vintage Hondo Flying V *by T***J on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 8, 2022* Had to sand the bottom to bring the strings down. Then file the string slots, but fit perfectly and harder than a few bone nuts I'd had to mod. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great for Esp LTD 42 mm nuts *by B***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 26, 2021* Excellent guitar nut. Put it on my EC1000 LTD. Replaced the factory earvana with a graphtech. It just didn’t pinch harmonic and was slightly to short allowing the strings to contact the frets on 1-3 that made some bad buzzing. I found this slotted nut and thought I’d give it a go. I’m glad I did. Make sure you understand that you will have to file very slightly for 10-46 strings and to fit in the nut slot at reat with no rocking back and forth. I use 12-60 strings so after the 10-46 test I filed it to my needs. You will have to shape it with fine sandpaper until it drops in place. The intonation, pinch harmonics, well everything really opens up. It was an inexpensive risk that paid off. I gave 3 stars for easy to install because folks need to know there is some slight work to be done. Stew mac nut slot files or similar quality are a must as well. I originally tried with the cheap ring of files that came in a cheap guitar repair kit and it just rounded the slots. With the proper files it took about 1 minute per slot.To recap, buy this for guitar nuts for ESPLTD guitars that do not have bone or trem type nuts. Get the proper nut slot files frome stewmac or similar files. Get 200 or so fine sand paper to shape it. Run your old strings through the nut slots after filing to smooth it out (and bridge if you are going up string gauge) All strings stay in tune with massive bends and super hard playing. Couldn’t be happier. ## Frequently Bought Together - Metallor 6 String Pre-Slotted Bone Guitar Nut Replacement Compatible with Tele Telecaster Style Guitar White Unbleached.
