A Strat neck radius is usually 9.5" - Perhaps you check to see what Tusq nut fits a 12" radius. **Q: are the nut slots cut to a specific string size ie 9s 10s etc?** A: This is from the Graph Tech website " Our nuts are engineered to accept string sets between 9-42 to 11-49 gauges on all electric nuts, 10-47 to 12-53 on acoustic nuts, and 40-95 to 50-105 on bass nuts, all without modification" **Q: Does this fit a fender classic player 60s strat? Many thanks.** A: Yes - I fitted one to each of my 2 Strats. Hope this helps! **Q: what is the radius of this nut? Is it for a 7.25 or 9.5 inch radius? thanks** A: I had a conversation with their tech support last year. They told me all their precut nuts unless otherwise stated have a 12" radius. I have a very small and very amateur YT channel that I'm doing for fun during lockdown. I'm currently making my own nut out of Corian so I can add more colour to my axes.
