They are used for demonstration purposes only. This item can be customized for various string gauges and/or desired string spacing. ** Note: Currently, only for 4, 5, 6, or 7 string instruments. ** For custom orders, please select any available option for Nut Length. Then, include in a message with your order the following: 1. String gauges (in inches) for your instrument. For example: E = 0.056, A = 0.046, D = 0.032, G = 0.024, b = 0.016, e = 0.0122. Neck width (in millimeters). For example:44.5 mm3. Desired spacing between strings (in millimeters). For example:6.4 mm4. If you require equal spacing based on your current instrument, please provide the following measurement (in millimeters):Distance between inner edges of outer strings. See picture in listing as example.5. (Optional) Nut Width (in millimeters) 6. (Optional) Nut Height (in millimeters) How to use: ** Note: This guide is intended to create "starter" slots before completing the final setup. 1. Place your guitar nut on the guide. Note the orientation of the string gauges marked on the guide. 2. Secure the guide and the nut on a vise. 3. Choose the appropriate slotting file. Each slot is designed for use with smaller gauge files to create "starter" slots. For example, a string gauge of 0.053 (low E string, etc.) would require a 0.046 file or the next gauge down (A string gauge). The thinnest slots are designed for use with 0.010 to 0.012 slotting files. 4. Once starter slots have been created, place the nut on the neck of the guitar or instrument. Complete the setup by slotting the nut to its final width and depth using the appropriate slotting files.
