hello softies
im still do research on the adjustable compensated nut... (and i still havent done researching on it)
i just read some nut problem from some fellow softies, like
a "ping" sound when bending and tuning the string
playing a trem bar then goes out of tune...
a "ping" sound is come from nut ... because of the nut's material, and there is a friction on the nut that causing the strings go out of tune, after bending the string..
when bending the strings, the string got stretch , the stretch point usually found at the bridge saddle friction point, at the nut friction point , and at the tuner it self
and after releasing the string, it got stuck on the nut friction point .. so the string were relieve from bridge saddle to the nut, but the string tension from the nut to the tuners is still strained uptight and dont come back to its usual condition ... thats why your guitar goes out of tune
i'm planning to make some nuts (regular nut, not the compensated one) from this composite material for some fellow softies for free... and try it.. (I'M REALLY SERIOUS)
yes, i do really want u to try it, and not just keep it ....& do not sell/give it to anybody, and use it on your axe.. hehe preferably a serious and experienced player :mrgreen:
to give me an objective opinion
i need someone else to try it.... not only me
and if some of u have ever use graphtec's TUSQ nut.. please try mine.. is it as good as TUSQ or not
... no need for lubricating or etc, its Slippy ,really hard and durable
, just file the slot, tune up , strum , bend the string, dive the trem, and hear the sound.. is there any different from ur previous nut
please compare it and let me know 'bout your opinion
i appreciate your opinion... and ill research more on the material

ok this is the material for next single cut project
but ... i there r several woods i want to hunt for
can u guess what wood r those ? hehe
one of them is a mahogany ... and the others r the woods i got from several places ...
especially this beautiful wood under the stoptail and saddles
it has really strange name ... like starwars character ..
there are my custom DIY stoptail with the saddle installed and 7 trem roller saddles there... i made it for my friend ... 7 individual saddle for multiscale guitar... but looks like he want to change the material for the saddle, they're no use anymore.but ill use them on my own Tremolo

1 single cut with wrap around stoptail... with semi hollow body... with or without f hole..
& the other one should has a tremolo... since i have 7 unused saddles ... but i only use 6 ... since im not a fan of 7 strings guitar
u like 22 frets or 24 frets?
first time i build a tremolo guitar... lots 'o experiences gained
and i know the critical point.. ill fix it in this project..
and the single cut with stoptail will be my first on stoptail based guitar ...
for the compensated nut... ill try equip it on this project

yea... this month is pretty busy day for works ... i hope next time i go to SG i can bring my guitar... so u all can test it out
my first DIY Axe, ive lent it to my friend on church... for one day last saturday... he said he really love the sound... got a nice clean accoustic sound without using stompboxes, nice overdrive ... nice weight... really light... looks cool on stage
well pretty narcissistic .....
but he said he like a guitar with a pickguard and he was not accustomed to a guitar with PU rings.. since my axe has 24 fret, the PU rings r blocking his thumb when strumming without using a pick ha ha ha
i guess 22 fret would suit best for a player who like strumming on his guitar without a pick.. coz it has wider space between the neck and bridge pick Up

22 please. Play it, and you'll know why I said 22 the last time as well.
