Nut Problem?

lastyesterday · 05-27-2009, 03:20 PM

Hey guys, just noticed that my action was a little slanted, then i look up at my nut(lol)

:

Is this normal, or should I have it looked at.
If not, should I have it looked at? because i only got the whole guitar set up about 2 weeks ago.

The 'bigger' strings need more 'relief', since they 'swing' more when they vibrate. If the guitar plays well, leave it alone.

Have you checked the accuracy [tuning] of the first few frets?
