What's with the darker blue curvey marks?
Those aren't stock are they?

Have you tried lubrication? I've had great success with Big Bends Nut Sauce.

That sounds like the answer to an entirely different question

Thanks! Actually, I haven't tried anything yet. The tuning is pretty stable for me since I'm not a heavy trem user, just gentle vibrato. Big Bends will be the first thing I try, though - if it hasn't dried up, I bought it several years ago and never opened it.

I bought a set of files to fix a sticky nut on one of my guitars which worked out well. It’s possible to use a string with Brasso or other polishing compound to clean up slots. Look it up on the net for more info. And of course lube helps. I use it every string change out of habit.

could have been pretty much any one of these..... (except the one that's only half built - that's just a percussion instrument right now)

Thanks, I hadn't heard of using Brasso on a string. I have some thin abrasive cord from StewMac that’s meant for widening nut lots, but I haven’t tried it yet. I like your idea since Brasso isn’t too abrasive which means I’d be less likely to overdo it.

my 1998 R 6 is lots of fun with the FM9 and the vintage amps.
