After switching necks from the crappy Mighty Mite to the Squier, I realized that Graphtech, for some odd reason, doesn't make pre-slotted nuts in 1 5/8" size. So I went for broke and got a Malmsteen nut for the Strat. I'm VERY impressed with the tone and I've had ZERO issues with tuning. I did rub old strings through the nut for a few minutes to smooth the slots and used some Teflon lube, but I'm convinced that the nut is not the main problem with Strats going out-of-tune. The acoustic tone of my guitar is much louder and clearer and harmonics are AWESOME!
Anybody else on the brass nut bandwagon?
