Hmmmm....that's possibly a minor setup issue. If they're OK on 10s but go sharp on 9s, your nut grooves are probably just a hair too shallow. That, or you've got a very heavy left hand touch and are just pressing them sharp. One of my PRSs will "go sharp" for the first 15 minutes of playing it until I adjust my technique....the nut's fine....it's just the way the guitar is. Each guitar is different!

You?
In reality, I live in Charlottesville, VA, about 2 hours southwest. But, I work in Crystal City during the week, and go home on Thursdays after work. I'm staying in Springfield in a hobbit hole basement apartment while up here. Axis29 is just around the corner from me.

Maybe a get together!?!?
