NotAaliable Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 My G string keeps going off the nut whenever i bend the string, so i detuned it but i'm afraid it will cause a neck twist . What should i do? BTW it's a 61 RI EDIT: i tuned the string again,but still i'm afraid of something bad happening to my baby :(
BigKahune Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 . Are you saying the nut G-string slot is not cut deep enough?
strat-o-steve Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 Take it somewhere and have it filed a little deeper, or just double over some sandpaper, and rub it through the slot to deepen it, but try not to widen it. Detuning one string will not cause your neck to twist, at least, not for a LONG time :)
NotAaliable Posted January 25, 2011 Author Posted January 25, 2011 As i didn't have any sandpaper at home, i had the brilliant idea of spinning the tuner up and down so that the string itself would rub the slot,wear out the hole and it wouldn't be widen or anything. I think it'll do for now (lol) Thank you guys
