Thank you. I'll try the Gel superglue. I did sand the bottom of the nut before glueing. It is the nut that came with the kit. Because its basically hallow there isn't much surface area. I'll try...
Has anyone had this issue? While I setting up the EX-5, I removed the strings to adjust the neck, bridge...and the nut fell right off. I glued it with Titebond wood glue, and let it sit for 24 hours....

Finally! This was over 2 years in the making. I was pleasantly interrupted by a baby girl, but it's ready to break in. I still have an annoying buzz from the electronics, but I'll deal with...

Excellent idea to use it as a guide for paint.
This is cool. Might be exactly what I need! Transferring on the bare wood seems to give that old faded look. I wonder if the result would be richer in color on primed wood. Might be a bit tricky to...
The EX5! Exciting. I took a couple days off work after the holiday and I'm looking forward to spending time on this.
Hey gang,
Just getting started on first byo 5 string. Getting ready to start sanding today.
