well, why not just get the musikraft neck you want and pay someone the $40 to put a nut in?

Yea, Sully is right. Get the neck you want and have a tech do it. $40 is cheap for the work that is done, plus you get a new set of strings [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Also, that way you can get with the tech and put the nut action where you want it. Some like the E and B strings a little lower at the nut than the larger strings. With Warmoth, you will be getting an average straight across at .030-.040" height above the first fret. Very playable, but just thought I mention it. Once you start making your own nuts, you will never go back and even the best techs can "blow a nut" at the last step. But if your careful and follow the procedure you'll be fine. It's fun with the right tools! [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] Getting the Erlewine videos is neat too. I like watching them and noting Dan's dry sense of humour. A good chuckle here and there.
