Mutt,

I bought a Nashville tune-o-matic for my Epihpone years ago and did nothing with it, now that i have it in my head i am going to mod the hell out of this Epi, i want to finally make use of it. One small set back is that the saddles aren't slotted for the strings.

I am wondering what the right tool for the job is? I do have a set of various, what i would call smaller precision needle type files at home (i can provide a picture later on) that "appear" like they could do the trick. But i am not wondering if there is something more specific that i'd need to do it right? Also what kind of mathematics do i employ when i do file these babies down? is it s simple matter of just figuring out the middle of the saddle with a good solid caliper measurement? Or is there more to it?
