No Bother, at all. I am glad if I can be of some help. If you want post
these questions at my forum at: http://michaeldimin.forumco.com/. That
way others can benefit as well.

The lower tension of the JR's might neccesitate a truss rod adjustment.
Hopefully the nut slots are not too low, or you might need a new nu (not
a big job, but one that usually needs a pretty good set up guy)

Peace
Mike
