Turns out to be that i managed to get a Gibson Eb-3 '65 Bass on good conditions for the lame price of 60 usd (the salesman was a complete junkie), the only problem is that it was a right handed model... i drilled the nut in order to accomodate the strings in order to play it lefty style but it crashes constantly with the frets... anyone has one? or knows where i can get it!?

Cheers!

Enrique

Any guitar repair guy will make you a bone nut easily. I did it many times. Here in California I usually pay $30, not sure how much they'll charge you in your neck of the wood. You won't find a manufactured lefty nut that fit anyway
