    Picture is one of the actual nuts being sold, not generic
    Most flat bottom nuts being sold are only 4.5 to 5.3mm in height. This one is spec'ed at 6mm high. Less chance of having to shim the nut to get proper string height over the first fret. Easier to remove some off the bottom than to shim. See below.

    ………………………………………………………………………………..
    Please note, pre-shaped nuts are not a drop in replacement. In most cases some sanding will be necessary to fit the width of your guitar slot properly. If you need to lower the overall height, just lay out a piece of sandpaper and run the bottom of the nut back and forth to remove some height. Depending on your finger board radius, minor slot filing may be required as well.
    Do I need a flat bottom or curved bottom nut?
    Most, if not all Fender Squire, and other Strat and Tele style guitars made oversees (China, Indonesia, etc.) use flat bottom nuts.
    In most cases, Fender’s made in the US and Mexico use curved bottom nuts ranging from 7.25” to 12” radius, with 9.5” radius being very popular found on many American and MIM standards.
    This nut cannot be used as a replacement for a curved bottom nut.
    Do I need 42mm or 43mm?
    That could depend on your guitar or your preference. Many prefer a 43mm nut over 42 regardless, because 43mm sometimes gives slightly wider string spacing, and/or the opportunity to sand the ends of the nut to precise width of the neck…or not. For an exact replacement, it’s best to measure your present nut or go with what is spec’d by your guitar manufacturer (see Fender website for example). Many Fender, Squire, and other Fender style guitars specify 42mm nut. Some spec 43mm or (42.8). The difference between 42mm and 43mm is very slight (42mm is approximately 1.65” or 1 5/8”— 43mm is approximately 1.69” or 1 11/16”). Important to keep in mind too, that sometimes manufacture specifications can differ slightly from what is actually on the guitar.
