Nut Slot Gauge
Nut Slot Gauge
Introducing the Music City Bridge “Nut Slot Gauge.” This simple and effective tool ensures you achieve the lowest possible nut action while eliminating open-string buzz.
With four built-in preferences of bump up above a "zero" fret - 0.000 (in thousandths of inches), 0.003, 0.005, and 0.008, the Nut Slot Gauge easily and accurately measures your nut slots' current height, with or without strings, and unaffected by action or the truss rod setting. This helps you achieve the softest feel and also the least detuning due to grip.
How to use the Nut Slot Gauge:
- Move the string out of the slot.
- Place the measuring gauge into the slot and slide the tool toward the bridge.
- If you hear a click, then the nut is taller than the gauge.
- If you don't, the nut is lower than the gauge.
"The nut slot height is one of the most critical and routinely neglected aspects of a great guitar setup. It is difficult to control the depth within the tight tolerances that are required. You work the slot down slowly until it’s just right, but if you go too far the string buzzes and you have to start again! The Music City Bridge “Nut Slot Gauge” provides the instant and dependable working feedback necessary to control and refine slot depth and deliver a top-notch nut setup every time."

Getting the nut slot depth right is crucial to repeatbly terrific action. This tool greatly improves repeatbility!
I have tried a number of different methods and schemes to adjust nut slots and THIS is by far the easiest!
Finally, a simple and easy to use tool to measure the depth of the nut slots.
Highly recommended.
Awsome! Easy and way simple
I recently bought the Nut Slot Gauge. I'd always struggled with using feeler gauges, but the Nut Slot Gauge is a MUCH better & easier system.
As an experienced guitar tech, this simple, easy-to-use Nut Slot Gauge has remarkably improved my setups, moving from very good to great. Playablity sells guitars, and makes happy, satisfied customers. No better investment if you work on guitars, or are serious in maintaining your own guitars.
Nut Slot Gauge
I love this tool. I've been using mine for almost 3 years now. I use it pretty much every single day at my job. I don't do a setup or make a nut without it.
Waaaay better than using feelers, or even my digital nut slot gauge. Once you understand the thinking behind it, you’ll understand why this is so good. It removes the bridge height from the nut slot depth equation. Much quicker to use other methods too. Genius.
Just what they said it was just what I wanted works great buy it
