Not that I am against it, but logically, that would only be effective on open strings. Once you fret a note that nut is bypassed. It amazes me how many people don't get that.

I don't think any of the Earvana nuts are available for lefties unfortunately.
Much to my distress.
So I like purple, okay!!!!!!

Yeah but sometimes a guitar will be perfectly in tune with open stuff and not quite on when fretted, and vice verse. So the thought here is to have all the fretted stuff on and the this nut to compensate for that little bitty that may be off. Mostly prevalent between the G and B strings in my experience.

Yeah, you don't just change the nut; you also re-intonate the guitar.
I e-mailed them to ask when the damn thing is gonna be available. So far, I've gotten no response...

I've also emailed them with no response. But I can't wait till these arrive. I have a custom Tele with an Earvana, and it truly works, both open and fretted notes.

IF YOU USE THIS FLOYD ROSE NUT, EVERY FRET HAS TO BE COMPENSATED TO MAKE IT WORK, THE NUT IS ONLY THE FIRST STEP!

Wrong...wrong...wrong....dude check it out......the string length has changed , therefore the tension on the string needs to change to be at the correct pitch....so even though all frets have not moved the changed string tension is altererd
( compensated ). You should try an earvana or buzz feiten system before you go rambling on about this subject.

I could care less about trying these "Correct guitar scale designs" After actually playing alot of guitars that had these improvements, NOTHING COMPARES TO MY OLD TRUSTY STRAT! But you may have seen this already but this is probably the best improvement in the industry!
