Recently acquired an OM2H with the vintage now neck. The string cuts on the nut seem very shallow, with the string almost riding on top of the nut. This leaves a larger gap between the string and the fretboard, especially in the first few frets, making it more difficult to play notes and chords cleanly and retain accurate intonation. The action was high overall and I lowered the saddle a couple of times. The action could still come down more but I think cutting deeper grooves in the nut would be next before taking the saddle down more. The neck is straight. I bought it from the original owner who played it very little and made no modifications to it.

Does anyone know the Collings specs so I can compare them to mine? Is there a difference between the Collings standard neck specs and the vintage now neck?

I really, really like this guitar and it is by no means unplayable, but I think it could be better. I don’t like a really low action as I dig in pretty good sometimes so I’m careful not to go too low.


Thanks
