Guitar Nut Repair + Fret Polish & Full Setup on a Black Strat | On The Bench

Is your guitar fighting you at the first fret? A bad nut causes tuning issues, buzzing, and poor playability — my Spectrum Strat needed some serious help. In this On The Bench session, I walk through a complete nut fix, fret polish, fretboard cleaning, and finish it off with a full action and intonation setup.
