Threaded bolt nut

Started this discussion. Last reply by ChickenboneJohn Aug 6, 2021. 1 Reply 0 Likes

Seems like a pretty simple thing, but I just need someone to say “yes”. When using a threaded bolt as a nut, I need to shave about 5cm off the first fret. That’s half the bolt width. Yes?

"The bolt should be centred on the ":zero fret" position."
