Im putting together some shit for a buddy and I need a nut for a 24" jagmaster neck. I'm guessing it's around 42mm like all my other shit.
Can I go to gc and get any old fender brand nut or do I need to order something special for it? |

You'll probably need to sand/file down the bottom/sides to fit; it unlikely just drop in unless you're buying an official Fender US Standard Strat nut for your Fender US Standard Stratocaster.
I'd personally measure the existing nut/neck first and then buy, to save ball-ache. |

The main thing to worry about is if the bottom is flat or curved. |

Then just measure the neck, and see whether the hole is curved or flat at the bottom. Otherwise I've found them to be fairly consistent, bar a little sanding. If you can I'd take the neck to the shop to get the closest fit. |

Pay extra and get a tech to make one for it.
I've got a preslotted one my mate fit on my Jaguar. It's passable but not completely happy with it. |
