Hi @Steve2150 x WELCOME TO THE TAC community, and I have one other suggestion, I addition to the wider nut. Keep elbow bent. Try playing classical style or at least elevating the neck of the guitar. Then push elbow in and down a little – which moves your hand down and keeps fingers bent. Then, while you have a good arch to your hand and are playing with your fingertips, try moving your index finger up a little on the low E. So that the pad of the finger moves up and away, then move the index finger up a little on the low E string, essentially Moving the pad off the A string and using it more for the Low E.
