Just bought this used. string 6 to 5 distance is 0.5 mm smaller than 5 to 4. centre to centre.
Seems even smaller with the thicker strings. The rest are fairly uniform. Is this common? Should I fix it or just adapt my right hand to the spacing?
Thanks! Gary
Hope I'm asking this in the right place. Please correct me, new to the site and the dobro.

I believe the spacing is center to center, therefore the fatter strings will have less space between them.

I got curious and looked at mine. They appear equal to my old eyes.
