No snickers, but an honest question. I was restringing my SD 40 custom and notices my nut was loose. I slid it back to the normal position and restrung it. Is this something I should be concerned about or should I have a luthier look at it?
I just dabble and I'm good with that!

You'd be paying someone $50 to $75 to place a drop of glue. You can just keep it under tension, or you can use a drop of titebond. I like to use a glue that allows you to knock the nut out if needed. But, not something so soft as Elmer's.

some of my larrivees didn't have any glue for the nut.
snug fit, and I'm OK with it.
