MY NUT

Sign in to disble this ad
My A string keeps popping out of the nut. I tried to file it down just a tad and still to no avail it keeps popping out when I play. I play Fast/slow music. When I play slower stuff i'm usually ok. But when I'm playing faster or even "bouncier" music it pops out. any suggestions. I have a show tomorrow and would love for this not to be happaning.
thanks.
