Description:
The Hosco SCUD SOS-EG1 nut shim uses MTS Multiple Taper String Theory to compensate for string offset at the nut, correcting pitch issues across the low frets for significantly better intonation. It is specifically designed to fit electric guitars utilizing nickel strings and scale lengths between 628-650mm (24.7-25.6in). The shim thickness is graduated at 1.3mm (0.051in) for the low string and 1.2mm (0.047in) for the high string for proper string-to-string offset.
Installation of this component is straightforward: simply slide the S.O.S. spacer between the existing nut and the neck slot. This is an ideal solution for players seeking improved intonation accuracy in the first few frets without the need for replacing or permanently modifying the nut itself. This high-quality Hosco component provides a precision upgrade for standard electric guitar setups.
