Good job, Locking Nuts can be a hassle, but would not change a great Floyd ♥️🤘🎸🤠

[@doubleuseven]

Thanks! The buzz on the loose E and B drives me nuts.

[@christineblack4654]

I dont want to shim it, I want it lower. so I will sand it.

[@Ben-ll3iy]

What do you sand it with?

[@amaurythewarrior]

i don't want to tell the guy his job, but i would protect the side of the headstock while removing the nut. unless the guitar is completely beat up already...

[@michaelcarey9359]

It looks like some kids already scribbled on it... it's a loss.

[@tetra3000]

I cant believe you assume there is a shim in there, what if there is no shim and we want to lower the nut?

[@MusicNomadCare]

This video shows how to lower a Floyd Rose locking nut that does not have a shim. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooSViqp3ntGaq5I The nut height spot is at 39:14.

@@MusicNomadCare Thank you very much

This is a dangerous way to show an example of how to set a nut hight. If the bridge is set at a different hight than the one in the video, you will have very different numbers, so be very careful.

[@michaelcarey9359]

I think the nut is being adjusted after the rest of the guitar has been set up "perfectly".
