    Thanks, FrankenWashie!

    I've just had a go at stringing up, and as Simon Barden predicted, the nut is WAY too tall. I've just popped back to see what Simon suggests to fix it, so that's next.

    Oh and one of the cheap strings provided along with the Ernie Balls set, snapped as I tuned it up. Oh well....

    Very common for the nut to be too tall and also the cheapy strings are notoriously terrible. Good for ballparking the first setup but that's about it.
