Just about finished my first kit, an EG175 ish copy. All has gone very well & i'm quite pleased with the result. I've gone through the setup procedure so frets, trussrod & intonation are all OK. I do think,however, that the nut is a bit high. Fretting the lower strings on the first 2 or 3 frets stretches the string out of tune a little. iI's only noticeable with open chords, playing further up the fretboard sounds good.
Should I remove the nut altogether and shave some off underneath or just increase the depth of the slots?
Thanks in advance.
