Curved or flat bottom nut?

[redname]

Was looking online for some replacement nuts and came across these 2

How wld I know which one my bass has without having to remove it?

My issue is tht the nut is glued and some force will b needed to remove them which might break it and leave me with a bass that can't b used until the replacement nut arrives

Just in case any of u knows off hand which type of nut these basses use, I'm looking at the g&l L2000 and Michael Kelly element 5

Thanks

Good question but no answer. JOOC, why are you swapping-out the nuts? You should be able to score the margin thoroughly with an xacto blade and tap out sidewise with a tapered dowel (chopstick?) and small mallet without damaging the nut.

Are you going to a vastly different string gauge, like for tuning BEAD? Or are you looking for an improvement over the original nuts?
