Location: Snåsa, Norway | I need to get a set of nut files to make a new bone nut for my 12-string. Found some alternatives on ebay , do anybody have any tips on which are the best buy, or other alternatives? I've looked at StewMac and they're more expensive,but maybe better? :confused: |

Like they say, when you buy the best, you only cry once. |

Location: Upper Left USA | I couldn't find the exact Ebay transaction but I picked up a set of Nut files that are basically just a dozen Feeler Gages with teeth. Great for small adjustments and I did a reverse strung 12 string nut with them. I think it about $60 for the whole set. |

They are kinda pricey but I guess they would last forever. |
