Nice Collection Particularly like the offset PU arrangement in the MOON allmost a Hendrix Voodoo thing and something ive been wondering about .... Love the block inlays on goldie Have you tried adusting the Pickup height at all ? The obvious is Battery Change but presume thats been done Circuit may have internal trim pot or cross head adjustment for level / gain v8

Nuts OOhh Can be very tricky .... A . To remove B . To fit Lots of choice available too .... Brass = Plenty of sustain and reasonably cheap Bone = Much the same but can suffer with dead areas Ivory = Poor Elephants Tusq = possibly the best solution Graphite = Possibly the best solution Plastic = Avoid Warwick Adjustanut = Allround good and available on the bay Solution is take to you local tech .......but if you decided to DIY be very careful ......you dont want to destroy your fretboard ..... The nut can release if you aim VERY carefully with a BallPein or similar instrument and a Hammer away from the body You ll need to secure the neck and ensure it wont move .. VERY tentatively position the point and tap gently to start ... If the nut is plastic it may release whole, if bone it will splinter or start to break into bits ....be very careful wear eye protection of course once its out you may need to fill and file and then prep for the new install. You will have bought maybe a precut nut which is pregrooved ....... if you buy a blank you will need to groove ......ouch more expense on buying fretfiles measure the width of your neck accurately so the fit is spot on . Dont learn the hardway but take your time if you decide to do it yourself .... Hope thats of some use and .be careful Best of luck V8
