gizmo6789 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 So last night at a battle of the bands, the worst thing possible happened. the nut snapped on my guitar and i ended up with a dodgy top string. anyway, struggled through an hours set, occasionally having to pop the string back onto the neck. how do i remove the rest of the nut? and can i buy a pre cut nut for my bass? then how do i fit the new nut?

Ou7shined Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Using a block of wood for protection a sharp [b]tap[/b] front and back with a small hammer should free it up. Without knowing what bass you have, there are plenty of P & J type (& the odd Gibby) nuts on ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ou7shined Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Have a word with [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showuser=236"]7string[/url]. He's fairly close by you and should be able to sort you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
