Hmmmmmm... Not bad at all.. But for $38 plus postage it does seem a tad expensive. Also I see the slots are not compensated.
But having said that, it should work OK.
Should be easy enough to knock one of these puppies up so I will try it and let ya know what I think :)

mmmm bone nut, fret wire and a file should make one of these

Yeah looked interesting when something's new that kinda has a purpose .always worth a share.
Let me know how it goes Guys.

the mosrite has a zero fret with a nut in front of that, so be keen to hear what Gav T thinks of this for open strings.
I'm yet to finish mine, too many other builds on at the moment.
Sure DB will advise me to use it as firewood being such a Mosrite fan hahah

haha cheers DB, we should have given the last 2 kiwi batters a mosrite bat last Saturday and we would have bowled them out

I'm more of a person who doesn't really believe much until I have proof, and I'm still waiting to find out if these are actually good!

But if it works, it's a really nice idea!

My Shergold Masquarader also has a zero fret, having owned it since new in 1976 I guess you could say I'm happy with the way it intonates and plays.
