When to choose it

Compare these six widths with the strings you intend to fit. The lower-string sizes differ from the MN668 set, so read the whole list instead of choosing by the super-light description alone.

Check clearance before cutting and follow the procedure for the instrument and nut material. Use a gauge to document the starting point if the current slot has not been checked.
