Nut files?

Strat62 · October 14th, 2008, 05:57 AM

I recently saw a set of nut files for sale on here somewhere, but I can't for the life of me remember who sells them. I need to do a little tweaking on the nut of my 12-string if I'm going to play it. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

I got my nut files from LMII. They are also available at StewMac.

There was a recent thread about nut files. I think it was by Scubadoo.

I think this was it.

I've got a set of the Stew-Mac files. They were a tad bit expensive but well worth the investment.

have a set that was given to me by a luthier that was "hanging it up" about 15 years ago...still cuttin' good and never saw a need to replace them with new...i also have a little Xacto knife handle and 4 little narrow snout actual minature saw blades that work perfect for cutting E and B slots....i guard those miniature saw blades with my life, cause they can't seem to be found ANYwhere any more, not around here anyway...
