Musica123, it'll be OK to leave it alone till the setup guy gets ahold of it.

Might move this down into slide and alternate tunings pretty soon so it doesn't get lost in the plethora of postings in this forum. In fact, might be a good idea to go ahead and do it before the board shuts down tonight for maintenance...
:shock:

I have some nerve damage to my left hand, but I put 11's on my 51 and can play with no problem. I did set the action low though. You might consider 10's, the tension would raise the action just a tad and if your playing a lot of slide you should be able to get along with the change. Just MHO :D
