davehux Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Picked up a 93/94 MIJ Squier Precision of The Bay this week. When I changed the strings, I found the nut was snapped in 2 under the A string. I've got a cheapo graphite nut on the way, but it's 6mm thick and the slot is 3mm. Obviously I can file it down, but I wondered if anyone knew of someplace that sells bone or brass 40mm wide/3mm thick nuts Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjones Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) Sorry to hear that. Sounds like you got a Silver Squier to me, as they all have 40mm nuts. I saw acouple on ebay last week. Was it the red one or the white one you bought? Sorry I can't help you with your nut issue. Edited February 28, 2014 by gjones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 You could try glueing it together if the halves make a good join? I had a lump fall off a Fender Jaguar nut and my regular tech guy just glued it back with some sort of resin stuff. Wasn't a problem subsequently.

gjones Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) Actually this nut 2nd from bottom looks like it should fit [url="http://www.guitar-parts-and-spares-uk.co.uk/contents/en-uk/d58.html"]http://www.guitar-parts-and-spares-uk.co.uk/contents/en-uk/p585.html[/url] Edited February 28, 2014 by gjones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davehux Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 They look like the business. I'll measure the string spacing tonight, as I'm not sure if i need the J or the P version My Squier is a black one. No Silver Series logo, but a Q-6 digit serial. When I took the neck off, it had SQ II PB/R on a label in the neck pocket and stamped on the heel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
