stick with the earvana i reckon. ive taken them out when doin fret work n they sound just as bright as the tusq stuff when dropped

thanks for the reply, but its not about tone. its about intonation. this guitar is the only guitar i have with an earvana. and its the only guitar that can't intonate properly. so i want to try a conventional, pre-slotted nut. i'd take it to a tech to have one made. but the nearest dude is about 1.5 hours away

ah fair nuff. Ive got two earvanas n they intonate great
