Well, since doing a dir/key=repair didn't yield an existing discussion, I'll ask this here.... Does anybody know what would be the easiest way to remove the bone nut on a stratocaster? It sits in a slot and is glued. There isn't much to grap onto to pull it out and I really don't want to damage the neck. Is there a trick to disolving the glue or something? Any help would be appreciated. _gary

Try this: remove strings get teakettle hot & boiling expose the nut to the steam for say 4-5 seconds see if it lets go repeat exposure until the glue softens took about 5 secs on my strat just about two weeks ago dbii | |||||
