<p>Doesn’t look like the action is too high, but the strings look like they’re in a little deep in the nut? I like to put some back angle on my necks when I’m using a fretboard, it makes a world of difference? Maybe it’s just a case of beginners hands, keep playing & see if it gets better? If not then maybe it is a set up issue, I’ve gone back through a few of my early cbgs a few times to get em set right? Hope you figure things out :)</p>

<p>Yes, I agree with Slim, I’m playing a cbg with string tie frets, which are way lower than 2mm with no problems? Here’s how to post a pic, like I said, it might be a set up issue? You might want to check out one of the action set up videos over at Glenn Watt & Del Puckett YouTube channel? …</p>

<p>how long have you been playing? were you a guitar player before you started on CBG ?</p>
<p>fret size shouldn't make that much of a difference in your ability to play a guitar. if you</p>
<p>are new to playing guitars in general, give yourself time to be able to play properly.</p>
<p>just keep playing and it will come.</p>
