Kentucky E strings suddenly not able to play B hitting fret above
Thanks for looking at this. I purchased a Kentucky oval KM272 from a reputable shop and it was set up (as far as I can tell) well. (Perhaps the action was a little low, but I could still fret each string at an octave. I knew enough about a proper setup to try that .)
It seems like all of a sudden the E strings are both 'hitting' a fret when I play A#. Really, nothing seemed to change.
I live on Long Island, so it hasn't been too dry yet.
I have the various tools to measure the action (I know where to measure on the guitar just not on the mandolin).
I have on GHS mediums and they're on for about 2-3 months.
If I just need to raise the bridge, can I get away losening the strings so the bridge doesn't change position? Are their other measurements or pics that I could take that would help you to help me? If I had a place nearby that I'd really trust with a mandolin, I'd bring it in.

And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.
