A few problems - got my jem now i have some questions


Well a jolly old fat man was kinda enough to bless me with a 7DBK this year but now i have some issues that need to be resolved. *First off the top locking nut is way to high. *In the setup notes and previous discussion it says to just remove the brass shim, well it does not look to me like there is one on it, do the 7dbk's have them? *And asuming it does how much will it lower cause it needs to come down a bunch? *I have read that you can also sand the wood down underneath, but I am not sure i wanna do that myself so anyone know a good guitar tech in the atlanta area? *Second problem i dont understand this whole take the bridge off instead of the strings, how is this better and what is the process? *Third problem, and the most urgent!!!!!!!! The stupid case is locked shut!!!!!!!! *I know the code and put it in but it just wont open. *I have also tried everything including every posible combination and the thing just wont open......GRRRRRR MY BABY IS TRAPED IN THERE!!!!! *Any help on any or all of these would be greatly apreciated. *Thank you and good day.
