bernd -> RE: wider nut (Mar. 7 2015 10:00:10)

quote:
one option is to get a new nut with the string spacing the same as your non-beater guitar and put that nut on a beater that has a 52mm width.
That´s an option but doesn´t generally mean it works. Taking this option means to take a careful look onto the fret ends. If the beveling starts in a distance of 2 or 3 mm to the edge of the fretboard, than this option won´t work for sure. If the E strings are too close to the begining bevel (less than 1.5 mm from the outside edge of string), than the string will be torn sideways off the fretboard just in the normal movememt of the finger while fretting the string.
Note that this option of the wider nut is clearly not as effective as desired if the string spacing at the bridge on the other guitar is smaller.
