Yeah, top E binds up in the nut. I use top heavy (10's) bottom lite strings and the nut is put on at the factory for 9's. The guy told me I'd have to have the nut openings filed just a little bit more.

Becoming a great guitarist has less to do with fancy moves than it does becoming a master of the basics and learning musicianship.
It's not what you can't do. It's how you play what you already know.
