Thanks David, not sure I’m going that route on a brand new Martin.

Here’s what the new set-up looks like, I was able to check out your pic, looks good. Thanks again.

Good morning tailsawagging, you are correct it is low. It played just fine and I did straightedge the neck I gave it about .010 deflection. Even though the action was really low and it played great and very easy to fret there was something about the set-up that bothered me. I ordered a new saddle and redid it, my action now is 3/32 at the low E string and 2/32 (1/16) at the high E, I left the truss rod where I had it. As a novice when it comes to set-ups and somewhat of a beginner at learning/playing, just trying to get educated and my feet wet. I’m happy with the set up now and going to quit obsessing and going to just focus on playing, thanks man.

I appreciate it guys, I will certainly give them a try, I also have a 000 Martin.

Thanks Bill, it would probably require a machine shop to ensure all strings were at 3/32, that would mean the saddle would have to be sanded down at an angle because all the strings have different diameters.

[JoeT]

Thanks Bill, were you able to look at the pic?

[JoeT]

Which string are you referring to?

Thanks everyone for your support, I’m not by the least getting burned out, I wish there was more time in the day. I’m self employed and I have already found myself moving clients to a specific day so I can have a day off during the week to jam, lol

Rock on.

Thank you Loraine, I can’t put it down after 10-20 min lol, I run through all the little licks and stuff from prievious lesson and of course I have a few of my own, so much to learn and know…………very exciting 😀

[JoeT]

I’m trying man, I’m obsessed, frustrated at times, my fingers can’t keep up with my brain but not giving up…………Thanks Ron, rock on!

[JoeT]

Thanks Chuck, too late, the guitar had a strange twang hitting the open high E string, returned it and picked up a 000-18, very pleased with it, but needs the action addressed.

Thanks Jeff
