OT: did the 2005 LE's have a bone nut

[robobass13]

hey folks, I guess this is more for BP and gang, did the 2005 LE SR5's have a bone nut? I just picked one up and it sure looks like it has a bone nut.

No not bone, they're plastic.
I had two LE buttercream SR5's, and both had the compensated nuts.

Oh this has the compensated nut, but I have been repairing and refinishing basses and guitars for about 20 years and I have worked with bone in building nuts alot and either someone made a really good copy in bone or it came from the factory like this.

The material is a form of Urea.

Interesting reading: Urea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
