Love the ZerO Glide Nuts !!!

Jan 25, 2018

The ZerO Glide Nuts are everything they say they are,.. and more. I just started playing guitar about 3 years ago, but I've worked with wood and restoring antiques all my life, so those skills and knowledge have been bleeding over into guitar maintenance.

This so to speak, was my first nut job. But the idea was clear from the start - remove & replace. Now the guitar nobody thought was worth fixing, is playing hotter than it ever was. Many thanks to StewMac for suppling quality from and for craftsmen.

Zero Glide Nut

Oct 7, 2016

I've got a '67 Gretsch Country Gentleman that has what they called the zero fret. I had always wondered why didn't anybody else do this. I put this on my 2010 Gibson Lucille and it solved the nut drag problem. I'm also going to put it on my '76 Les Paul Deluxe. A great solution to an on going problem.

Love My Zero-Glide Nut

Love the zero glide nut! It makes my open strings ring longer and clear like a fretted note making chords that incorporate both sound more even. It took almost no time to install on my stratocAster and I'm going to mod my Tele now too.

A Lot Less Hassle Than Slotting.

Resolves the nut-string height issue with a simple and easy installation. Worked perfect on my Heritage 16.

3rd Zero Glide for me

Nov 3, 2023
I've had 3 Zero Glides installed for me on a couple of banjos had a luthier mess up one of them unfortunately and eventually had to get a new one installed by another luthier. To me the sound on the open strings is clearer and cleaner sounding than with a plain bone nut. And the strings never bind in the nut slots when I'm tuning them.
