lubricate nut guna graphite drp pensil?ada tak sesapa kat sini yang penah try application ni kat nut gitar diorang?



aku nak explain xreti,korang try tengok pix tutorial ni..

http://www.mrguitartech.com/maintenance/nut.html

bagi aku teknik ni particularly useful untuk sesapa yang pakai non locking tremolo and fixed bridge guitars..sebenarnya ada macam2 cara yang boleh kite guna untuk lubricate nut ni,ada yang pakai aliminium foil letak kat nut slot and whatnot..tujuan utama lubricate nut ni untuk improve tuning stability,particularly untuk non locking tremolo guitars cam strat,so bile kte guna trem,bend and so on,lubrication tadi tu smoothkan lagi movement tali kat nut hence better tuning stability..aku da try teknik ni da dekat 3 bulan lebih and so far aku notice yang RG aku stay in tune a lot better even lepas 3,4 hari xusik langsung guitar,pick up guitar aku and it still stays in tune..sebab nut kat RG aku tu plastic,so aku apprehensive sikit overtime takut lama2 nnt nut tu choke..bagusnya teknik ni,it prevents choking and it helps prolong your nut span..nak tukar graphite nut tadak duit..lubrication ni buat seelok eloknya setiap kali tukar tali and all you need is a graphite pencil(sume pensil diperbuat daripada graphite mind you),preferabbly 8b or something and a very fine sand paper..gosokkan graphite drp lead pensil tu kat slots nut guitar,for g,b & e string nut slots,guna sand paper sand graphite lead tu dulu,pastu letak kat slot..



ni alternative..GHS graphitall..kat munkee music ada xsilap aku..harga xsure,tapi mahal jugak la..but it is the same thing..



kawan2 kat sini yang ada gak tips for tuning stability boleh share n post reply ya..thankx..

both pon ok.. vintage luthier guna pensil long time ago for guitars and violins as well. but graphitall was a blooming idea by rene martinez, srv guitar tech... you know how violent srv quenched the strat kan... that albert king kind of tone...

ferrules mau kasi counter sunk sikit la bro.. saddle mau kasi sand to smooth, aka 1000 t0 2000.. trem balance mau betul ikut gauge. don't get your guitar butchered aaa...
