After completing your work would you like to improvise a 'Jam session' with colleagues? Or maybe you are a young student who wants to entertain mates and friends? In any case, when the music is calling and you realize that the song you want to play needs a nut, this tutorial can be very useful!
Steps
Step 1. Get a rubber band, or hair band, and a pen
Step 2. Wrap one end of the elastic around the pen
Step 3. Place the pen on the desired fret of your guitar
Wrap the second end of the rubber band over the end of the pen after passing it under the guitar neck. This will lock the pen on the desired key.
Step 4. Remove your 'nut' and tie one end of the elastic to tighten it further
Step 5. Repeat the previous step until the strings are pressed with the right pressure on the fret of the guitar
Step 6. Start playing
Good fun!
Warnings
- Do not over tighten the elastic, otherwise the pen may damage the strings or fret of the guitar.
- A pencil may be pointed, remove the tip before using it. Otherwise, while playing, you could injure your hand even severely.
