so, trying out a bunch of different brands of strings, tried Dr Dadarrio, and now ernie ball... the ernie balls were lighter gauge (heaviest they sold) and the action was unplayable to me. So finally i got sick of it and went at the adjust a nut and bridge with the allen keys... the bridge wont move, i have the multi allen key wrench and the one that kinda grips doesnt catch enough to move it and the rest are too big to smal... so im moving the nut... and the little screw bored through the plastic... what the hell. SO i pull it off to try to fix the problem and the little plastic holder comes off... I know im not the first one with this problem... what do i do now, is it gonna cost me a arm and a leg to fix it? Im sooo dissapointed and pissed right now... i thought the system was supposed to make it easier not break on first attempt.
 
Hey mate,no need to panic,you can replace that broken nut easily.In the meantime,the nut you have will work fine.If your in the USA get onto Dana B Goods,they'll send you out a JAN3 & there's a simple,easy to follow guide on replacing it on this website.
 
Don't panic +1

It's very easy and very cheap to fix. loads of threads way back in the forum about this. Even I managed to replace one myself!
 
You may have to send them some Poutine in return though - I was just visiting a friend in Ottawa and wow Poutine is so good
 
From Wikipedia:

Poutine is a dish consisting of French fries topped with fresh cheese curds and covered with hot gravy (usually brown gravy) and sometimes other additional ingredients. The curds' freshness is important as it makes them soft in the warm fries, without completely melting. It is a quintessential Canadian comfort food, especially but not exclusively among Québécois.

Not to be mistaken with Vladimir... ffs
 
hye yea my just-a-nut is broken also lol. im also in Canada. I contacted Warwick they directed me to the Canadian distrbuter who was no help at all and just told me to go to the place where i got it. I also tried emailing Dana B Goods and they were willing to send me one but only if i knew someone in the states who could send it to me because they cant ship to canada. Does anyone know how much a Just-A-Nut III would cost in Canada?
 
I dont know the exact price in Canadian dollars but it wont be very much.In the USA they cost about $10.
