Note that the nut is slotted edge-to-next-edge but the bridge is edge-to-edge, so as one plays further up the neck, the spacing deviates from the ideal. Furthermore each string's sideways movement increases as you get away from the nut. But the spacing widens further up the neck, making fretting cleanly easier, so this is not a problem. | Note that the nut is slotted edge-to-next-edge but the bridge is edge-to-edge, so as one plays further up the neck, the spacing deviates from the ideal.
