Rock'n'rollerball nut
The incontestable winner in the harsh nut game (vibrato category).
Expensive but its excellent quality justifies it.
Useful fitting accessories.
Contrary to some user's advices, the installation of this technological marvel
is rather easy (if you are cautious and skilled enough) because you don't have to worry about the notches. I customized one Stratocaster and one Les Paul (w-Bigsby) with this nut.
The result is bluffing: perfect alignment, frictionless action, discrete but great look.
This roller nut permits you to engage safely in the most aggressive post-Hendrixian vibrato playing.

Most efficient upgrade for a strat nut
Installing it requires some permanent modification of the fretboard BUT the versatility that this nut brings to a guitar (ability of using different string gauges without having to change the nut) along with the fact that it is a similar material to the frets and the saddles makes it worth the effort.
The fact that you have to enlarge the nut channel towards the bridge end makes this mod quite permanent.
Pros:
- Changing string gauges without requiring a new nut job
- Frets, nut, and bridge saddles all made of the same material, less tone difference between open notes and fretted notes
Cons:
- Requires modification of the nut slot in a very hard to undo way

Keeps the guitar in tune.
I have an old Charvel San Dimas that had a metal nut (no rollers though). The tuning pegs are a bit off menaning that the strings have a slight angle sideways over the nut. This cretaed some tuning problems, especially when using the tremolo bar. I installed the LSR roller nut instead and all problems with keeping in tune and squirky noises were gone. I can even dive bomb with the tremolo bar and the guitar stays in tune. No tone loss either.

Beutifully engineered
This is a very smart piece of kit, I would recommend.
Seems pricy but even the instructions are a class act!
Comes with shims for fine adjustment.
excellent item.

Excellent nut
I had a Strat plus that had the old Wilkinson roller nut. The nut was good but trying to squeeze 10s into it was a drag. I tried this out and it was a very easy replacement. I prefer these roller nuts than the bone bits.
Make sure you use the right drill size when fitting it. The little screws can break and it’s no fun gettin em out.
The price ain’t bad, sure a normal synthetic bone is cheaper but you have no tuning issues with these. Also, your Strat plus will like this better.
You only have to drill 2 holes, you get the plastic adapter with it to make the replacement a breeze

Its a must for every "Strat" type guitar.
A massive intonation improvement on my Fender Strat.
This should be a factory standard on every Fender Guitar.
Please do be very careful when fitting this in and take your time, because you can screw things up very quickly, as the neck on the guitar requires permanent modifiation.
Side note: Its a little pricey considering its only a nut, however it is worth to invest a little extra money and have the intonation on your guitar absolutely spot on.

Love it
I absolutely love this product. Installed it on my guitar instead of top lock. Improves sustain, strings bending, tune and tone of the guitar. Not that easy to install, left it to my luthier. Works perfect, great product!

Keeping tuned
Easy to install, just follow the instructions. Locking tuners (sold separately) are good with this.
