Nut files

[alexanderraimo]

Hello all...

As I get more and more into setting up my own guitars, I'd like to address the issues I have with the strings not sitting in the grooves of the nuts correctly on my drop tuned guitars. What's a good, affordable set of nut files preferably with different gauges?

Yup. They're not cheap, but are the only proper way to get it exactly right. I have their dual edge files with 2 sizes on each. These are nicer since they have more sizes.
