    Five Watt World - Minimalist guitar gear

    Five Watt World - Minimalist guitar gear

    Nordy mute for Fender precision bass / jazz bass

    So I'm looking to buy a NordyMute and I'm not sure which string spacing would work on my basses. I have a 2013 AVRI '64 Fender Jazz bass & a 1975 Fender precision bass I've seen either 20mm or 19mm would work but I'm not sure. Any help would be great Thank you!
