Convert Neck W/ Floyd Rose Rout

[AndrTay]

Hi,

I'd like to convert a maple headstock neck that's been routed for a floyd rose nut to a standard Strat type nut. Anyone ever had to do this, any tips?

I'm thinking I'll need a block of maple to shape, plus a couple of dowels to fill the holes?

Small job, but advice welcome.

Allparts sells a corian nut to replace the locking nut. Pretty straight forward. Just installs like a standard nut.

Hi,

Replacement nut is all under control, it's the piece of wood required to re-build the missing 'tuner side' slope I'm thinking about.

( Apologies if I'm misunderstood your answer and there's an Allparts part that is specifically designed for glueing onto a Floyd routed neck to create a Strat type nut shape )
