My inexpensive Loar has a low nut slot on one of the E strings. Most likely my doing, when I "touched up" the slots during a string change. In all fairness to ME, I am familiar with using the nut files, and go very easy. When I play the string open, it buzzes on the first fret. I am looking for an easy fix.
I keep this mandolin at work, and only visit the location where I have it once a week. It is very dry here right now, and I do keep a humidifier in the case, but it is dry when I return each week. It did not buzz when I brought it to this location, but now it does, and if I look carefully at the nut, I can see one of the 2 E strings sits just a bit low compared to the other. I would like to keep bridge at its present height if possible.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
