Music Nomad Diamond Coated Nut Files - Price dependent upon choices
$0.00
MusicNomad’s patent-pending nut files feature a revolutionary diamond coating & round “string-shape” blade design resulting in smooth, precision cuts. They cut & polish slots at the same time and do not drift like common toothed files. The industrial, even diamond coating cuts & polishes all the most common nut materials such as nylon, bone, graphite, and TUSQ. They even work amazingly on saddles. We added an ergonomic handle for total comfort and control of your cut, or you can remove the blade from the handle as an alternative cutting option. Available in 12 sizes starting with .010” up to .056”, they work great for electric, acoustic, and classical guitars.

Product Description
Q: I’ve noticed the nut material clogging up the diamond file and it feels dull and is not cutting as well. How do I clean the blade?
A: Using a stiff bristle brush along with a mixture of mild soap and water will clean the files. Dry the blade after cleaning.
Q: I noticed on the smaller nut file sizes that are 300 grit such as .013”, .017 don’t cut as fast as the 150 grit nut files. Why is that?
A: The Nut File sizes .010-.024 were designed with a finer 300 grit compared to 150 grit found on Nut File sizes .028” and up. The higher 300 grit will not cut as fast as 150 grit which is great when cutting narrow nut slots (high E, B) to avoid over cutting or chipping and ensuring the smoothest, roundest nut slot every time. Slow and steady when cutting Nut Slots is the safest way to cut them.
Q: I filed my nut slot with the proper size nut file, and it is still a bit tight in the slot and pings when tuning. What should I do?
A: You would roll the file slightly to the right and put a bit of pressure going down the left wall of the nut slot and stop when you get to the bottom of the slot as to not go any lower. You would then roll the file slightly to the left and put a bit of pressure going down the right wall of the nut slot and stop when you get to the bottom of the slot as to not go any lower. It's important you do not want to open the slot too much or make the slot lower. You can also use MusicNomad's Tune It in the nut slots as a lubricant.
