      DESCRIPTION

      Achieve perfectly spaced, perpendicular nut slots every time with this precision-engineered slotting guide designed specifically for 43mm guitar nuts commonly found on Gibson Les Paul, SG, and similar instruments.

      Key Features:

      • Based on industry-standard 43mm nut spacing ratios for a premium, custom-shop feel with perfectly balanced string gaps
        • E-A: 7.6mm
        • A-D: 7.2mm
        • D-G: 6.9mm
        • G-B: 6.7mm
        • B-e: 6.3mm
           
      • 0.38mm Guide Slots - Precisely sized to keep files perpendicular while wide enough to accommodate common high E string files such as those from Stewmac
      • Friction-Fit Design - A simple but reliable locking mechanism helps keep the nut in place while you work on it
      • Clear String Identification - Each slot labeled E-A-D-G-B-e for foolproof positioning
      • Universal Material Compatibility - Works with bone, TUSQ, plastic, brass, and all common nut blank materials of any height or thickness

      How It Works: This guide creates accurate starting cuts in your nut blank before final filing to proper depth and width. Simply slide the nut into place, insert your nut file into the slot, and make your initial guide cut. The 0.38mm slots keep your file perfectly perpendicular, preventing angled cuts that can ruin expensive nut blanks.

      Perfect For:

      • Luthiers and guitar techs doing professional setups
      • DIY guitar builders and hobbyists
      • Anyone replacing worn nut slots on Les Paul-style guitars
      • Guitar repair shops looking to speed up nut slotting work

      Specifications:

      • Nut width: 43mm (standard Les Paul/Gibson spacing)
      • Guide slot width: 0.38mm
      • Material: Durable engineered plastic
      • Compatible with standard nut files (StewMac and others)

      About Our In-House Made Gear

      This jig is part of our exclusive line of in-house made products. Crafted by us, for you, this collection includes both affordable, hard-to-find gear and premium, artisan-made accessories.

      We are dedicated to creating unique solutions that you won't find anywhere else. From streamlined, functional parts that get the job done right to one-of-a-kind designs and boutique guitar picks, our in-house line offers a perfect balance of innovation, quality, and value.

      CRAFTSMANSHIP & MATERIALS
      After five years of experimenting and perfecting our craft, we've developed a meticulous approach to creating boutique guitar accessories that deserve a place on your prized instruments. Our renewable bioplastics form the foundation of most components, offering both environmental responsibility and exceptional performance. For our signature picks, we've formulated a proprietary composite that delivers the perfect balance of flexibility, durability, and tonal clarity.

      Each piece is carefully handcrafted or produced in small batches to ensure consistent quality and attention to detail. We believe that advanced materials deserve advanced craftsmanship—that's why every item undergoes rigorous quality control before it reaches your hands. These aren't mass-produced parts; they're boutique creations designed to match the care and passion you put into your music.
      WHERE ART MEETS FUNCTION
      Let's be honest—most guitar gear looks like it rolled off the same assembly line. We're here to change that. Our mission is simple: provide guitarists with accessories that are as visually unique as the sounds they create. Why should your gear be mundane when your music isn't?

      Through years of collaboration with boutique makers across the industry, I've learned what discerning players really want: products that combine striking aesthetics with uncompromising quality.

      Our pieces aren't just functional—they're conversation starters, visual expressions of your individual style. When you install one of our custom pickup covers or truss rod covers, you're making a statement that your instrument is as unique as your musical voice.
      Our Artistic Vision, Realized

      At Ploutone, we've moved beyond simply curating exceptional guitars and gear—we've become creators ourselves. Each piece we craft in-house represents our commitment to pushing the boundaries of guitar craftsmanship, developing unique materials and designs you won't find anywhere else. When you choose our handcrafted creations, you're not just upgrading your guitar—you're becoming part of our artistic journey to elevate the guitar playing experience.
