I asked this question under the latest string postings... I have a Marcus Miller Jazz and I am currently using Steve Harris (up the irons!) flatwound strings. When I went to see the techician who sets up my bass he told me that the nut is a little wierd for that gauge string: it seems that he had to burn the windings a little so as to make sure the strings set in the nut. I looked at several MM basses at shops and they all have the same nut (it seems that the E & G strings areas of the nut are "worn down" to describe it in some rational way)... I am not a pro so I would appreciate enyone's information as to what to do if I wanted to replace the nut with one that would accomodate heavier gauge strings.
Thanks.
