Members mikesr1963 Posted December 20, 2009 Members Share Posted December 20, 2009 My brother had an accoustic that the nut broke on. He went out to the garage and got a piece of scrap marble from a bathroom counter top and made one. It worked plus sounded ok. Those above, are just wrong.

Members flummox Posted December 20, 2009 Members Share Posted December 20, 2009 Ah yes, that dark time before wood glue was available to the general public... One of the best sounding guitars I've ever had was a 60's SG that had literally been smashed to pieces and slapped back together with cabinet nails and 3/4" woodscrews. I glued it up, filled in the cracks and holes, shot some black nitro over it and it was fantastic. I wouldn't mind another project like that, just for the challenge.

Members NashSG Posted December 21, 2009 Members Share Posted December 21, 2009 Can't really see what the repair was trying to fix, but the one with the big plate on the back seems functional, even though that is a big hunk of metal. It might have sustain out out the yin yang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
