I need to make a new nut or make some mods to the nut that is there.It looks like it is just standing there,but it must be seated within the neck wood or a very very strong glue.Has anyone replaced theirs?. My problem is the strings are not completely flat across the top when the bar is just laid on them some do not ring true,slight buzz.Anyone have a picture of a removed nut?

Recently got a Sho-NUFF 6 string pedal steel in open G.Still learning. |

Why not just adjust the nut slots with it on the guitar? |

You can also try filling any slots that are too deep or too wide. While I have never tried this myself, I’ve read online that a mixture of baking soda and cyanoacrylate glue (crazy glue/superglue) can be used to make a strong, permanent filler. The same glue can be used to anchor the nut to the guitar if it’s become loose.
EDITED: I had mistakenly said “talcâ€, should have said baking soda. _________________ Current Tunings:
