Nohing would be improved bringing the nut down as the action / height that end is fine. Maybe this model just has a high action? The bridge does seem to be very high and there is no adjustment that I can see? Does anyone have any ideas?
Hi Craig...
Welcome to the group, and settle in and have some fun!

Has the saddle been lowered? I'd check that before I do anything to the nut. I think there are some great directives on Fret dot com. Lots of pictures and explanations there.
