I recently purchased a new guitar, for some odd reason I was more concerned with higher on the neck fretted notes and didn't really bother checking lower notes. That's my bad, but it seems like it could be a relatively easy fix. The first fret (the wire directly following the nut) is too high and unless I have the action ridiculously high it buzz's open notes. When I initially bought the guitar the action was perfect and sounded great, but like I said oddly I didn't test open notes.
My question is how I would go about fixing it. Lower the fret, by either seeing if it's sprung or can be re-crowned or if there's a way to raise the nut for clearance? It's a locking nut so it can be easily removed. It's a sweet Axe and plays great except for the open buzzing.
