An indispensable setup tool for controlled nut action
Measuring string height at the nut is one of the fundamental adjustments to improve an instrument's playability, reduce buzzing, and achieve a consistent feel from the first frets. The MusicNomad MN601 is designed to simplify this check: you select the desired thickness, check the gap at the nut, and immediately know where you stand.
Thanks to its six sizes, this precision gauge covers the most common standards (0.016, 0.018, 0.020 inch) and adds useful options (0.012, 0.014, 0.022 inch) to fine-tune a lower, faster setup or, conversely, keep more clearance for a more energetic attack. The included booklet guides the aspiring guitar technician step-by-step, whether for a first setup or to gain methodical skills during regular maintenance.
