Hi Everyone, I have a few builds (2) under my belt but I've never done a detailed setup of a new neck, in particular filing the nut slots down when they are too shallow. Any recommendations for this for a newbie nut filer or just take it to a luthier? I'm asking because I did get one Warmoth neck recently where the slots were definitely too shallow. I understand why Warmoth errs on the too shallow side, no problem with that, it's smart. I have a strat build in the works and the roasted maple neck has a gorgeous grain to it. TUSQ nut. If it needs to be filed down would I be dumb to try it myself?
