Truss rod nut, stripped.

[Zwhetstone]

I have an 02 thumb bo bn 6. The truss rod nut is stripped and I cannot adjust it. Is there any way to fix this without major surgery? I also want to upgrade the nut to the Just-a-Nut 3, and it needs a new tuner for the C string. Can anyone help with these issues? It would be greatly appreciated.

- The fretboard has to be lifted in order to install the new trussrod. You can order it from Warwick. Couple hundred dollar job.

- The nut is easily replaceable. - Or Warwick has them, or Thomann Cyberstore has them

- Warwick and/or Thomann has the tuners, or a member here may have a spare to sell you.

If you are stateside you can contact the custom shop in NYC and get the parts you need, if that is the source from which you wish to buy them.

Thanks shaft. I may just leave the truss nut as it is for now, since it causes no huge problems. And those links were very helpful.

Some smart luthiers, lift just the first 2-3 frets, and replace the nut, then glue the fretboard back ;-)
