I am sorry Richard. I really appreciate your advice but I am not following...... your suggesting filling a groove almost at the back of the saddle before the string goes through the body of the guitar......
Apologies if I am not getting you Richard.
To help you visualise it - you should be holding the file at about 45 degrees, so the groove (looking at the saddle from the playing position) is at 1.00-2.00 o'clock (12.00 being the top - where the string runs off the saddle, towards the neck).
Sorry, couldn't resist . Otherwise, what richardhomer said.

Got you. Thanks @richardhomer - sorry I was a bit slow off the mark there!!! What sort of file would I need to make a groove in brass?
Thanks again. I might ask some one to do this as I don't have the tools and have never attempted anything like this before....
I know a Luthier who might help.......
Thanks again!
I wonder if its difficult to change the jack?
