Owen Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 Buy cheap, buy twice. I know. But what is cheap and what is expensive? Bear in mind I might do 5 nuts absolute max. I would want to do guitars as well as bass. Sorry. Ebay have all sorts for £15 ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowla Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 I've had cheapies and thought "these are cheapo"; I bought a set of MusicNomad ones via Amazon and they are rather good, definitely not cheapo! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franzbassist Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 (edited) I can lend you my set of Hosco files if you like Owen. Just cover return postage when you're done? Edited December 4 by franzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted December 4 Author Share Posted December 4 How can I haggle you down from that? That would be lush. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassApprentice Posted December 6 Share Posted December 6 Whilst Owen is now sorted, does anyone have any other recommendations? My dad has asked for a set for Christmas and will be doing predominately guitars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad has asked for a set for Christmas and will be doing predominately guitars These are the bass ones I bought; they also do guitar ones. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09BSZKQT5 I looked at a YT video and the person said the StuMac ones were the ones to go for if you're a pro, but these were good. I have a set of Hosco guitar ones and the slots are V-shaped, whereas I'd prefer vertical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellzero Posted December 6 Share Posted December 6 I have some Hosco (V shaped) and Ibanez (round shaped) sets for bass and guitar and they both work fine depending on what type of groove is needed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainbowreality Posted December 17 Share Posted December 17 (edited) I'd give the MusicNomad ones another thumbs up, they cut cleanly and are nice to use. I bought mine separately from GuitarGuitar and worked out at £80 for a 4 string bass (I can live without the case) Edited December 17 by rainbowreality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
