    Deepeneing vs shaving entire nut

    If I want to bring down the action on all strings (6 in this case) at the nut, is it better to deepen the slots individually, or shave the entire nut down? All things being equal, seem shaving would be a quicker (even better) way. Thanks!

    Lowering the action on a Waterman

    Hi, all. First forum post. Does anyone know whether or not I can remove the bridge on a Waterman and perhaps lower the action? I purchased a transparent green one for a Christmas party that's coming up (of course I plan on filling it with battery powered Christmas lights...naturally!) The...
