The PT-5043-00 is a great option to upgrade the nut on your Cort Strat or Tele style electric guitar.  It has a flat bottom but is only 3/16" tall.  It is pre-slotted for a quick and simple install.

One of the key causes of tuning frustration is string binding at the nut.  Black TUSQ XL is impregnated with PTFE, the slipperiest substance on earth and alleviates the binding grip the nut has on the strings.  Strings simply glide back into tune!

Black TUSQ XL is engineered from the same material as TUSQ and is impregnated with PTFE which is five times more slippery than graphite.  It has all the tonal benefits of TUSQ, bringing out the hidden harmonics of your guitar all while drastically improving tuning performance.  


Black TUSQ XL is consistent from piece to piece, and within each piece, to offer you harmonically rich tones without the problems associated with natural materials.
