hey ,

i just got my gretsch 5120 back from the luthier and wow what a difference !
i asked to get my frets back proper were worn out , and just neck adjustement , intonation ,pinned the bridge and especiallt the nut , man chaning that standards crappy nut to a new bone nut changed alot !my guitar sings more , and is more trebly it was like with the other nut my guitar got muted a little bit , sounded dead .

anyway i advise anybody tho change the nut and set it up proparly by a luthier !

Well done.

Better than new now, eh?

Nice! Bet it really sings now!

Congrats Sam. Well done sir.

Nice Man!!! Totally agree. Just got my 5120 back as well. New bone nut, its like a whole new beast!!! The best thing for these 5120's is a good setup and a new nut. Not too expensive either!!! Enjoy!!

Wayne Compton (Workknot) cut and slotted a bone nut for my G5120 a few years ago and it made a big difference in the tone. I installed one of his aluminum bridges and the tone got even better. Some mods/enhancements are inexpensive but go a long way to bringing an entry level guitar to sound very good.

Thanks Wayne.
