Customer Questions & Answers
-
Question:
What are nut slotting files used for?
Answer: Nut slotting files are used to produce round-bottom slots in nuts and saddles to ensure proper seating of strings without buzzing. -
Question:
What size nut slotting files do I need?
Answer: Choose files that are the same size or slightly larger than your individual string gauges. A smaller file can be used to widen a slot. -
Question:
Can these files be used for metal saddles?
Answer: Yes, these files are great for metal saddles as well. Choose the file size according to the string gauge or slightly larger. -
Question:
How feasible is it to own and use just one file to cut wider slots for all six strings on electrics and even acoustics?
Answer: The .010'' nut slotting file can be used to cut all the slots on the nut, but it is very thin and could bend, thus requiring more time and care. It is recommended to consider at least .032'' for the larger slots.
StewMac Tools Editorial Review
**** The StewMac nut and bridge files have garnered a strong reception among customers, particularly luthiers and hobbyists who seek high-quality tools for precision instrument work. Users frequently praise the sharpness and accurate sizing of the files, asserting that they are well-made and reliable—attributes that are essential when making fine adjustments to instruments like guitars and banjos. Customers have noted that these files effectively maintain their shape and performance over time, providing a smooth surface during use and ultimately saving money by enabling individuals to take on repairs that would typically require a professional. While there are mentions of alternative tools that may cut faster, the StewMac files Consistently receive accolades for their superior quality and longevity. Users emphasize the importance of investing in reliable tools, claiming that these files have paid for themselves through the savings realized from DIY repairs. In addition, customers appreciate the excellent customer service provided by StewMac, further solidifying their reputation as a trusted brand in the musical instrument repair market. However, there is a minor critique regarding the handle of the files; while functional, it does not feature a soft grip, which may affect comfort during extended use. Yet, many users noted that modifying the handle with their preferred grip material is an easily manageable task. Overall, StewMac’s nut and bridge files come highly recommended for those looking to enhance their instrument maintenance toolkit, offering unparalleled quality that performs well in both professional and amateur settings. **
