Unfortunately Named But Effective
I'll admit to about half an hour of immature jokes when I told my wife I'd ordered this, but after I regained what maturity I ever possessed...
This stuff works really well.
I have a Tele where the B and G strings tended to get caught in the nut (I'm trying really hard not to make jokes right now), but a tiny drop of this in the slots completely eliminated that.
The same would happen with the high B string on my MusicMan Majesty 7. A tiny drop in each slot and in the trem saddles and the tuning is very nearly as stable as on my Floyd Rose-equipped guitars. A major third of upward bending before the plate hits the body then down to sagging spaghetti strings and straight back to pitch every time.
It won't do much good if the nut is poorly cut (it's not stellar on my Player Series Tele, but the MusicMan is definitely done well), but if your strings ping every now and again, this will make a world of difference.
A little goes a very long way. When this runs out, I'll definitely get some more. If you don't have a Floyd Rose on all your guitars, keep a syringe of Nut Sauce in your tool kit.
Highly recommended.

No miracles
Bought this a while ago for my US Standard Stratocaster. There was a tickling noise coming from the headstock area. After having looked into the issue, I had first attempted to change string trees. But didn't make a difference, then I applied the Nut Sauce on the nut. It also didn't make a difference.
I think it's a nice product. However, their claims are a bit too over the top. It doesn't improve sustain or overtones at all. It's just a lube that actually doesn't drip or leave any stain.
I think buying 0.5ml and trying for yourself won't damage the bank. It will last a long time for sure. Personally, I wouldn't buy more. I'm planning to go back to gold old graphite.
Note that Thomann review section for this particular item doesn't reflect the quality accurately. This has been classified as a cleaning agent. However, it has nothing to do with cleaning.
Would it protect the saddles and the nut? Maybe a little bit.
But it would definitely not clean anything. For this reason, I'm giving a 3-start for this parameter.

No tuning issues after using this products. I use it with lemon oil for fretboard and string cleaner by ernie ball and strings last fresh sounding, without breaking for very long time

Teuer, aber funktioniert
Kostet relativ viel, aber man benötig nur ganz wenig pro Gitarre und funktionieren tut es tatsächlich super. Habe bis jetzt immer etwas Graphit von einem Bleistift benutzt, aber die Nut Sauce wirkt sogar noch besser (und hinterlässt keine grauen Rückstände)

Saucy!
Got this pretty much based off the name alone hahaha
Honestly wasnt thinking too much of it i just wanted to try it out as ive heard a few peopl say its actually quite good!
This stuff is EXCELLENT! Very easy to use and a little bit will go a long way. I really have noticed my guitars holding tune alot better and i have a bigger bottle of nut sauce on the way.
Wel worth it!

I think it helps
I can't say I've noticed a huge difference after applying it, but that's probably because my guitar already stayed in tune pretty well. I gave it to a friend and he said it improved his guitar's tuning stability. After all it's not magic, and you have to identify if your instrument would benefit from it.

Just a little goes a long way
Either this or Planet Waves' version does a great job of aiding tuning. It's not cheap but a little goes a long way and arguably you would be crazy to not use it when string changing. Highly recommended.

Wow. This really works.
I bought this for use on a vintage Electra MPC guitar that has a brass nut. Tuning stability has been woeful and no amount of graphite could sort it out. Hence I finally decided to try this product.
On receipt of the product I was initially underwhelmed by the size of the contents however a little does go a long way. Essentially you will receive a pack including a syringe containing 'nut sauce', an applicator (like a tiny q-tip) and a 'Big Bends' sticker.
I applied the 'sauce' direct from the syringe into the grooves of the Electra's brass nut and saddles. The tip if the syringe is extremely fine and it's easy to control the flow of the Vaseline like substance. I completely detuned/retuned the guitar and 'hey presto' I could accurately tune the guitar for the first time. Gone is the sound of strings catching on the brass.
Time will tell if the tuning will be more stable over longer periods of time. Meanwhile a big thumbs up for big bends sauce.

helped my Gretsch guitar with tuning issue i had already changed the nut, professionally done by a Luther but still slight issue with tuning and nut sauce cleared that up. i have used it on my Fender strat which only started to give me tuning problems have it about ten years big bends to the rescue problem solved i basically use it on every guitar now accoustic and electric it has made tuning easier and more stable its a must for every guitarist to have in your bag buy the big one though if you are lucky enough to have a few guitars

Does it fix broken parts? No. Does it lube as it's supposed to? Sure does!
It does what you want it to do. Reduces friction on moving parts.
Kind of like oiling your bike chain!
Great product
