For lefty's who convert a righty

[unclrob]

In the last few weeks I have converted5 righty guitars to lefty's.I'm only going to talk about the nut so this my help budding tech's.This involve's no special tools just a nut file and a blank piece of bone.The first thing is shape the bone to fit the nut spot.Then take the the right hand nut flip it and put it up against nut blank backwards take your nut file and score the new bone using the old nut as the temp plate.Score the new nut just enough that you can see the mark.Take a pencil and run it acrooss the top just enough that the lead fills the scoring and have at it.I hope this helps someone who might not own a bunch of measuring tools.


As an old school repair person I'm sure that all the young guns will have at me.....BUT ...........I don't seem to care.Thanks and have fun.
