Better intonation with the Buzz Feiten Tuning System
Hey, the Western tuning formula isn't perfect — that's why Washburn and Nuno equipped the Nuno Bettencourt N4 Authentic with the Buzz Feiten Tuning System. This compensated nut and saddle system corrects the inherent intonation problems any musician faces when using Western tuning. The result? More precise, stable tuning across every single note on your fretboard. Fans of the Buzz Feiten Tuning System include Eddie Van Halen, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, and Andy Summers, and we're sure you'll love it too.
