Best Nut Lube!

[Sybo]

For my PRS nuts silly people..... suggestions, graphite, what are you guys using?

I've been using the Rene Martinez GraphitAll for a long time. Just a tiny little bottle, lasts a long time. You don't even really need those silly "applicators;" just use a leftover guitar string like dental floss to ensure that the stuff gets down into where you need it. Just a dab will do ya....

Shea butter Vaseline applied with a toothpick. Learned from my luthier.

Nothing needed ( IMHO ) The core nut on a PRS is self lubricating , I am told there is brass in the nut material it get better with use in my experience.

Big Bends Nut Sauce

I don’t normally use anything, but when I’ve had a grabby nut slot on other guitars, this stuff has solved the issue. It’s the only thing I’ve tried, so I can’t say it’s the “best,” but it does work!

If and or when I need to lube a nut, graphite it is.

I'm not a fan of any kind of lubes that attract or collect dust. Not that I think it'll hurt the guitar to the strings, I just don't care for funk (not the music, the material)

I use graphite from a mechanical pencil plus nut sauce. Belt + suspenders.

I thought this was another Bot thread for a “male enhancement” product.

A pencil.

I'll take "Dirtiest sounding thread that's not really dirty" for $400, Alex

I think that the slipperier the better. More lube! Of course I’m not exactly a finesse player.

Well, I do know a guy who puts WD-40 on his guitar strings, but I'm going to go with Big Bends Nut Sauce for $200.00 Alex.

What sauce makes a nut slide best.

Alex: correct, and the circle gets the square!

Wait...wrong game.
