Re: Has anyone tried the Goldtone zero glide nut on their mandoli
I'd be curious to hear about this too. I've always liked the zero fret concept and this looks like it could be a good way to retrofit a mandolin with this setup.
I'm curious though, what do you mean by "slipping and sliding" with flatwound strings. I don't see how flatwound strings would behave any differently with a zero fret than any other type of string.
