Fantastic
Got it to replace the plastic nut on my sST20 HSS. Super easy install. It was a bit bigger as suggested by the packaging - just sanded it down and got it fitted in 15-ish minutes. Being a complete amateur I'd say it was very easy and quick.
String spacing was a bit different from that on the stock nut for the ST20 - but that ended up being a nice surprise as I do prefer it as it is now and it still fit perfetctly fine within the fretboard.
Won't comment on tone etc as many much more capable have confirmed how much better it is and comparing to a plastic nut would be useless anyhow.
Overall - got it along with stringtrees from graphtec as my first ever products from the brand. Can 100% recommend them based on this experience - items are great and as described + packaging it great.

Very good quality
Nothing more to add in a product that is already well renowned. It fit right in my strat, looks good on it and it actually makes a difference. I am very satisfied!

Great for maximum tuning stability
I installed the Graph Tech Nut on my Ibanez GIO, replacing the mediocre plastic nut on said guitar. Installation was relatively easy, I had to file away a bit of material to install the nut. The resulting dust gets everywhere, so best do that close to a bin or in a workshop, not on your desk. Also, while filing, it smelled rather bad, kind of like a mixture of hot tar and gasoline. After filing the nut to the necessary height and installing it, tuning stability improved massively, and the tone of the guitar became less tinny. A small, easy mod with great effect. Would definetely recommend the Graph Tech nut as a replacement for the standard plastic nuts on most guitars.

The rumours are true...the nut makes a difference!
Cheapest most useful upgrade you can do on any guitar! Improves tuning stability and in some cases also.improves a bit the sustain

Noticeable sound improvement
I bought this part just to replace the plastic nut that my Fender guitar has, by replacing the nut you can notice an instant sound change, the sound of my guitar is cleaner and with much more sustain, I really recommend this product if you are looking for a cleaner sound in your guitar.

Easy to use
Got this as upgrade for the cheap plastic nut on a Squier Bullet Mustang. It was already almost a perfect fit for the slot, straight out of the packet – a little bit of attention with some abrasive paper (to slim the sides and shape the bottom to the radial curve) was all that was needed. There's been a noticeable improvement to the tone of the strings when played open, and the tuning (with the stock machines still installed) is now rock-solid. Great outcome from very little effort.

You are looking for a big black NUT? hahah
Now, for real.
You wont believe how much your nut affect your sustain.
I bought it initially to correct/avoid tuning issues, but beside letting the string slide properly, I have noticed the sustain on my open notes have increased noticeably.
i believe I have Killed 2 birds with one stone, as I got the result I was looking for and a bit more that i cannot complaint about.

Works perfectly on my Bullet tele
I installed this on my Squier Bullet tele and I am very pleased with the result. The guitar stays in tune indefinitely and even when changing tuning I have 0 issues with strings getting stuck.
*** Keep in mind that you will have to adjust its height to match your guitar. I had to sand about 1mm off its bottom to get mine to a good height so that F is not sharp on the E strings and still not get fret buzz

tuning issues solved
I put this on one of my guitars and it solved the issue I had with snagging strings, it makes tuning the guitar very smooth, no jumping of pitch at all as you're tuning.
