The nut on my Kala Ubass is loose and since the strings are so stretchy, sometimes tuning moves the nut a hair. How do I glue it just enough to make it stay in place without having it permanently stuck forever?

Two tiny drops of ca glue on the base , will hold the nut and also enable it to be tapped out easily in the future. Note I say "tiny" drops. Mike
