Hi guys

I got this problem on my JPXI7. Nut slot too deep on A and D strings due to my (quite)heavy using of trem and they have buzzing for open string(If you're serious player you know how annoying it is). I asked my guitar tech for how to fix it he said "fill some carbon with super glue and file it and it should be ok". I think it could solve my problem but there's still a question in my mind "what's gonna happen if I often use trem again?". Do I have to do this trick over and over ? it seems like I can't change nut on my JPXI it looks like permanently put in. And it's so shame to have great guitar with trem but I need to avoid it.

Do you guys here have some problem like me and have a good solution or suggestion I would be very appreciate.

Thanks

I'd be really surprised if the nut has already worn down that fast, even with excessive trem use. It's a JPXI, so you've had it what... a year and a half, maximum?

Are you sure your neck relief is set correctly?

Stuff wears out with use. Not a huge problem that can't be fixed.
