Some time ago I started a thread about what tools I need for fretwork. Then I understood that if I want to work with frets, I would need to buy tools for Nut work too.
This time I need to ask: what gauges for nut files are the best selection if I will work with 9's and 10's but I want versatility? an experienced user recommended me .016, .020, .028, .035, .049 and .056 gauges for 8's, 9's through 13's sets of strings. I will work with 9's and 10's most of the time but if that gauges are a wise selection and dont have any cons I will go with that. What do you think about that selection of gauges?
I need to ask too about what gauge will work better for a .068 string: .065 or .085?
I investigated alot and Im decided to go with the Stewmac Gauged Files. My fundaments are based in some threads like this http://www.tdpri.com/forum/tele-technical/210187-cheap-er-nut-files.html and this http://www.tdpri.com/forum/tele-technical/274641-what-tools-do-i-need-nut-work.html#post3319555
Any advice is welcome.
Thank you in advance. Best regards, J.P.
