mrMagenta -> RE: nut string spacing (Jan. 5 2009 13:30:12)

Thanks for the suggestion, Anders. I don't think this will be the last nut-bopne i'm making so i'm trying out how it will feel with at bit narrower spacing than what i used to have. Phew! It's really easy to ruin all the work by sanding down the final height a tenth or even 5 hundreths of a mm too low, i get slight fret buzz when i play the low E string hard with the thumb, i guess that's alright though, it does that with a capo too. The string spacing became something of a hybrid.. a bit compensated spacings, ranging from 8.4 to 8.2.. i don't have very precise tools for this, but the result will do fine, i hope.. it's too late to see if i got too much string buzz because i can't play pulgar from hell at this hour. Anyway.. if i would want to lift it up 0.1mm could it be done by placing a thin strip of something underneath, or would that be really bad for the acoustics?
