Cuts quickly and evenly - I have several acoustic, electric and bass guitars so I opted to buy the full set of files. This came with every size of nut file that I need to maintain and set up and service all of my guitars. The handles are well made, and make these files really easy to control, cutting slots quickly and accurately. Just keep the files straight and go slowly and you will be fine. The diamond cut abrasive on the files keep these razor sharp and working like a dream. They came with a nice carrying case to keep things organized and include a brush to keep your files clean. These are not cheap but if you build or maintain your instruments this a great value compared to the other guy's diamond cut nut files which are significantly more expensive. Review: Very happy with these, nice results - These are amazing. The file is contained in a way that you're less likely to scratch the head stock, yet easy to grip and control. With the full kit, sizes are no issue. I used them on my 12 + 6 (EDS-1275) and the options were good. I don't mind going a smidge larger when filing the nut to allow for larger strings down the road. Being diamond, they file bone no problem. The cut is fast and accurate leaving a smooth channel. They do load up a little, but to be expected. That's what the brush is for. It took an annoyingly high action guitar to one that plays like butter and sounds great. ## Features - The Entire 16 Piece Nut File Set Perfect for any Job, any Instrument.

It took an annoyingly high action guitar to one that plays like butter and sounds great. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Been using these for almost a year now *by A***D on August 25, 2025* I find these files to be better than my trusty 80's made-in-Japan Hoshino/Ibanez factory files. These new diamond files are a bit uncomfortable to hold, not really a big deal though... more like something to get used to. I think if my hands were giving me problems it would be a problem where I have to fashion some sort comfort handle for the files. In use the diamond coating is definitely something to get used to, these files can remove material very fast and I have to pay close attention to what back-angle I'm aiming for well in advance of hitting my target depth. I often will use a very light touch, almost no, pressure as a kind of a "clean up" pass as I get into checking range of a slot. I also find it useful to tune all the way to pitch as to check for the string sticking in the nut. As I find sticking I try to very lightly file to polish out the gripping, in most cases as this happens it seems to have more to do with angle leading up to the leading edge of the nut. Using nut slot lube really isn't solution, when a slut is done correctly band-aids aren't necessary and these files are very capable of creating an excellent nut or bridge slot that provides for smooth tuning that also will relieve tension back to the tuner or stop tailpiece after a string bend. Awesome set of files and I'm glad I bought them, I will admit it was a little tough ponying-up the dough... for me it's been money well spent. ## Frequently Bought Together - MusicNomad Diamond Coated Nut File Complete Shop Set - 16 pc. w/Storage Case + Cleaning Brush - MusicNomad KEEP IT SIMPLE, SETUP (KISS)™ Starter Kit Bundle - 6 pc.
