  • replacement nut for Epi SG?

    A couple days ago I posted about changing the tuners on my SG so that it would stay in tune better. I forget who suggested it, but someone suggested that maybe I should replace the nut. Is this something that would cost alot of money to have done? I know I would not want to do this myself. Also what kind/brand would you recommend. Thanks in advance!

    i like the graphtec nuts (hehe). they stay in tune like a dream, and also you can bend strings easier without the strings breaking faster.

      Graphtec nuts are better and partucularly for Gibson guitars, I think probably cost in the region of $50 to have it installed by someone who is good. Could you also have the tuners installed at the same time by the same guy and perhaps he'll give you a discount?

        Thanks guys! I think I'm going to ask around for prices. I really want to upgrade my SG. I only got it for $200, so I feel a few upgrades won't hurt.
