Hi
Have recently changed the nut on one of my basses after deciding that Roto trubass where not the right strings but i have 2 issues,firstly the nut does not sit completely flat on the neck and secondly the finish around the nut was very very brittle and has cracked off a little,tone is unaffected by the issues just looks cosmetically bad, just need some input on how to fix these issues,thanks

Make sure there's no glue left from the old nut on the end of the fretboard and the neck. It's usually hard to see as it tends to be clear or slightly wood coloured.

And to sort the chip, a dab or two of black nail varnish would probably to the trick. Unless you have the chip, then just glue it back.
