What guitar do you have? Replacing nuts is usually no big deal except for you have to re-tune the pull. Hold onto the pull rod so it doesn't jump out of the bell crank or note the position in the crank before you unscrew it, then just put on the new one an tune it up.
There are several lengths and I.D. sizes of these depending on the guitar, so you'll need to determine the size or tell the supplier what guitar model you have.
www.psgparts.com usually has a good selection of sizes.
Also ck. Show Pro guitars accessories and probably Steel Guitars of Nashville as well. |

I bought mine from McMaster-Carr Supply. Look for circuit board standoffs. They have them in various lengths, both tapped and un-tapped. Excellent prices.
