For those who choose to perform their own nut work these are the materials I have available. More material will be added as the need and/or requests arrive.
Aluminum
Bone
Brass
Buffalo Horn
Graph Tech
Nickel
For those who want me to perform the task, a material and labor charge is assessed to the job at hand. For example, for anyone wanting me to make, install, and slot a bone nut on their Fender Jazz Bass, the charge is a flat $50.00 fee.
You would then either send me your neck or I could make one that was not final-fitted to the strings and neck. Either way the price would be the same. The only difference being the added shipping and the added work on your part to install and fine tune your own nut. There's also the removal of your existing nut which some have thought would be an easy endeavor only to discover they've chipped off a section of their fingerboard when performing incorrect removal procedures.
For a quote on this work, or if you have any additional questions . . . guess what? That's right. You'll have to contact me. I also reduce the cost of labor when this work is performed along with other work you may be having done on your bass. The more work you have done, the less $$$$$$.
Want to do the nut job yourself~?
