They Even Work Amazing on SaddlesNut File FAQs I’ve noticed the nut material clogging up the diamond file and it feels dull and is not cutting as well. How do I clean the blade?Using a stiff bristle brush along with a mixture of mild soap and water will clean the files. Dry the blade after cleaning. I filed my nut slot with the proper size nut file, and it is still a bit tight in the slot and pings when tuning. What should I do?You would roll the file slightly to the right and put a bit of pressure going down the left wall of the nut slot and stop when you get to the bottom of the slot so as to not go any lower. You would then roll the file slightly to the left and put a bit of pressure going down the right wall of the nut slot and stop when you get to the bottom of the slot as to not go any lower. It’s important you do not want to open the slot too much or make the slot lower. You can also use MusicNomad’s Tune It in the nut slots as a lubricant. What is the general rule for what size file I need for a certain string size?The general rule is that the file should be the same size as the string, up to no more than .003” - .004” larger than the string size and for bass strings you can run your nut file size up to .005” larger than the string size. In other words, for a .026” string you would use the .028” file; for .011” string you use the .013” file, for the .080” string you use the .085” file and so on. If you go much larger, the slot can become so large that the string vibrates in the slot, causing a buzz. If you use a file smaller than the string, the slot will be too tight, causing tuning issues.
