Hey, thanks. Not looking to replace part of the nut. There may be a seam but it's one piece, probablue due to a 2-step casting process. I don't think there is such a thing as an authorized Yamaha shop in my country ;). Looking to fix it myself anyway.
Hey, thanks for the info. I was looking at different pickup systems. I could go with a piezo but I'm also partial to for instance a K&K mini, which isn't a piezo, but is fitted under the bridge. Seems less invasive and I can keep a solid bone nut. I'll shape the bone nut & saddle myself, I'm not in the USA so stew-mac isn't really an option. Plus shaping them isn't that big of a deal. Although it'll be the first time I'll do a saddle, so I'll have to be careful getting the intonation just right.
The FG365SE is nice indeed. It has 3 knobs which are rather good looking, so if I use a system with a different pre-amp I'm looking to keep those knobs. Otherwise I may just add a piezo and solder it into the existing one.
Right now I'm still checking options and different acoustic pickup-systems. It isn't my forte, as I don't really play amplified regularly (not with acoustic anyway). I just don't want to lose the function. And yes, the saddle is okay - but no more than that. The high E and B strings have cut down quite a bit. I'm a big fan of changing plastic nuts / saddles out of bone ones anyway. Thanks for the info.
