    Am I nuts for wanting to be compensated?
    Starting to think about returning to bass playing in the very near future.

    Can someone explain why a compensated nut would make for a better bass?

    i think its better for tuning of something, but yeh, i'd like a full explanation as well...

    and how much would it cost to install the compensated nut (in AUS$ preferably)

    I do understand a compensated nut. I just don't know how a bass like my SR 5 would benefit from one. This is the perfect bass. I think that anything Eb does will be fine as they only know how to produce top quality. I wanted to know why the nuts were going to be compensated on future basses. I probably understand that too but... felt compelled to ask for some stupid reason.

    over there.

    You are looking at one fine bass that works and works and works
