If you were to switch left-to-right properly, you would replace the nut and either fill and re-cut the saddle slot or replace the whole bridge.


Filling and re-slotting the nut would probably cost more labor than the $8-$10 to replace it with a good quality Tusq one.

As an aside, I would bet 99% sure that Taylor did not switch it this way. It sounds very half-baked to me.
I did not mean to imply this was Taylor's work.

I was hoping to hear the situation is ok...
I had planned to swap the nut cuz seeing the glue was driving me..

Ordered a new bone nut from Taylor, Shot them a letter inquiring about availability a original RH pin-less bridge, I don't really want to fill and cut

I do have a very good and trustworthy Luthier in Beaumont, David Newton whom I should have brought it to in the first place. David will be handed this guitar tomorrow.

Thanks... I will let you all know how this works out.
