I recently took my 91 OM2H out of storage after 2 years. I put new strings on and "ouch" the B and E strings were touching the first fret. What a buzz! While in storage I had the strings tuned down, kept an eye on the humidity, but I didn't touch the truss rod didn't know). The action is lower everywhere, but worse in first position on the B and E string. I'm afraid I've mad a back bow in the neck, but I can't tell. I'm going to put a shim in the nut and see if that help. Any other advice? Thanks!

Have you tried backing off on the trus rod?
