I bought a deluxe players awhile ago and im left handed what should i do to have the nut changed

Oh and also is there any way i could play with a strap without drilling holes

Hi Jimi: I've always done well with the pre-slotted TUSQ nuts. There's usually only a small amount of additional shaping and slotting to be done on those - and sometimes nothing at all. There are left-handed ones to be found at the bottom of this page:

And many other nut options here:

If you don't fancy doing that nut swap yourself it is an inexpensive job for a tech.

Far as the strap is concerned, if you don't want to drill another hole then the only way forward I can think of is to tie the strap to the peghead just above the nut, in the traditional style of acoustic players.

Don't seem like a very rock and roll solution, though...

Cheers - C

PS: Remind me, are you in the UK? If so, just look at www.wdmusic.co.uk to find those same nut products closer to home...

I'll make you a lefty nut.
