Default Nut Jobs ('63 Guild F30 and me)

Hey, sittin' around recovering from bilateral hydrocelectomy (look it up), and after much aggravation with the narrow string spacing on these older Guild small bods, I decided to go into the parts drawer and reshape a Martin bone nut to replace my original, with the dreaded inch and 3/8 spacing. It fit nicely, giving me the extra fat finger room I needed on inch and 11/16 spread, still far enough from the edges to make solid contact. A good day.





If you want pictures of my stitches you'll have to PM me.
