Count the strings on that classical... Enjoy! John Pizzarelli - (It's Just) Talk [Pat Metheny Cover] - YouTube
I was waiting for someone suggesting that you file down your fingers. I have a G&L solid body with a 1 3/4" nut. The neck is slightly wider at the joint and the string spread is 2 1/4". You can...
