Two questions -- One -- if you use Bronze frets, why not make the Nut Bronze as well? Why go for Brass? Bronze is a considerably harder metal than Brass. Two -- Do you make this for a six string guitar (Not Bass)?
It's my first time changing strings on my Corvette bubinga pro-series 6-string and after removing the stock strings, I noticed the JAN 3 nut seemed to removable and not fixed in place at all. Are the two poles the only things keeping the nut in place besides the tension from the strings?
Really smart solution. But missing possibility to set the guitar intonation (like Earvana compensated nut). What you think - is it possible to make something like Micro-Frets Micro-Nut?
Hey guys, Hate to say it, but the older, (original) JAN appears to be a better choice for "individual" string height adjustment, especially when considering all the various fretboard radii out there. The original version would appear to also make the "aftermarket" slot filing unnecessary. Only concerns that I would have in regard to the original version are fivefold: 1. how fine a thread pitch are the individual notched height screws, 2. How accurate would the "break-off" point be for intonation when installed in a different manufacturer's instrument, 3. How "Tight" are tha threads to avoid slop when adjusted to a higher setting? 4. Are the threads "fine" enougt to allow a "minimal" amt. of adjustment per each 180deg of turning. 5. Are the threads, (assuming Brass?), strong enough to withstand string pressure, or "strip-off" over time?-------------Just some thoughts?------------Gb
Hi ! What's the biggest string gauge the brass 4 strings version can take ? I plan on getting a corvette and replacing the tedur nut with the brass one but I play in Drop B with a 115 gauge low string (that's light for a B, I already know this but I like the tone of a thin string) and would know if this will fit (whole string set is 55-75-95-115).
"Cumbersome filing of nut slots is a thing of the past"
"Please ask an expert to deepen the grooves through filing"
You should make this for regular guitars too, not just bass. It would be a great aftermarket product.
I agree!
ABM in Germany makes something similar for guitars, I installed one on my paul reed smith,, its great ,, and solid brass
YEP
To adjust a just a nut
Or not to adjust a just a nut
That's the question
I need to order a bunch of these !!!
thise should be mainstream
I wish there were a guitar version of this for my Carvin DC400 !
seems to be quite the market for it. Patten it and make us a few million
search on ebay - I think I saw some generic ones listed earlier today

The frets are "bell brass" not bronze.
What's the difference for a Clayton signature nut?
Is it wider?
Is this available for a standard 6string guitar, not bass?

Probably.
I need a replacement for my Warwick corvette standard 2004. It's not even of layaway yet and its broken, it's a jan2.
Do they make them that would fit banjos?

try again you adjust intonation atthe bridge
Is there anyone making a guitar version ?
+Donald Bollinger Little company called Gibson USA. They're a bit shit tho. So gl.
ABM
do you have an acoustic guitar one?
I've made one for myself a long time ago, and it's funny how you made it sound so complex! bravo :D
Did anyone else picture Goebbels holding a Luger to this announcer's head while reading his script?
