                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Yeah, someone who knows what they are doing needs to check and see if it is the nut that is the problem and if it is, the slots just need to be filed or cut a little deeper.  You only need a "new" nut if you cut them too deep cause you can't put it back.   :lol: There are resourses you can find online by doing a search that will give you tips on assessing the nut height.  It is a tricky job though, I was nervous doing it to a new guitar but I have a fair amount of experience setting up guitars.  My advice for your friend's guitar would be a guitar tech.]]></content:encoded>
