I need a new nut on my Peavey!

[Erlend_G]

Well, i'm currently working on fixing up my old Peavey Raptor plus, which i got from my uncle 2 years ago. I'm done with almost everything, exept the nut work.

Here's the deal:

I need to get a new nut for it, but i don't know any luthiers that can do this kind of work for me. And i suspect that making a nut from scratch is a very difficoult job?

Any suggestions what i should do?

Thanks,
-Erlend

í´m guessing that is an electric guitar... so which type of nut you are looking for?

Re: I need a new nut on my Peavey!

Well, the Raptor plus that i have is an 2003 model, which is very different than the 2005 model.

It's an electric guitar, with a very shallow string spacing, and i think 24" scale length.

I tried emailing both Peavey's repair department and Peavey's parts department, but here's the answers that i got:

The repair guys: "You should try to contact Parts@peavey.com instead
The parts guys: "You should try to contact Repair@peavey.com instead

D'oh!!! :smack:
