Hello
Hi everyone. I'm new here (obviously) and thought I would finally get rid of that prompt to post a message ;-) I'm currently in the Dayton, OH area, but home is in East TN. I've been self teaching for about a year now and could definitely use some help. I travel with my job and it didn't help matters that I had no room to pack my guitar to my last contract. I'm dealing with everything from sore fingers to wondering if I messed up the action on my guitar after changing the strings a couple of days ago. I just don't remember them being that high, but then again I didn't have my guitar with me for 3 months.
Hopefully we can muddle through all this together!

Hi sweetgal. Did you use a different gauge of strings when you changed the strings?

You may well have put a heavier gauge string on that raised the action. Look in the guitat tech forum about checking the height of the strings.
