Thank you nobody ever makes videos for cheap people

Thank you so much! I just bought a guitar that needs to be fixed up. I already repaired most of it but then noticed that the saddle is too low. I needed to know how high the strings should be so this was really helpful!
@kabztube
ohh man this actually works, you can lower you string height without any buzzing. thank you!
@whereandbackagain7059
You can use guitar picks as well. Tortex picks are nice because they're totally flat and have the thickness written right on them.
@dennisnielsen4289
For those that would like some measuring numbers. I've set up my bass string height at just around 2.0 mm for the G-E string, and about 2.5mm for the B string. This also gives a nice feeling of following the curvature of the frets, on whatever kind of bass you have. I find that as a very good balance point since i like fairly low action but not insanely low. Feel free to try those measures out, anyone who likes. Peace ✌️

I never knew this, thank you for doing this vid. This advice is gonna be useful.
@nfdrzewiecki
Great tips! Luney and Tuney are outrageous names for coins lol
@TheUlesifah701
Awesome tip ! Using the string height ruler is a pain in the ass so I’m gonna give this a shot. I just got an affinity Tele and I’m gonna throw a Wilkinson bridge , 72 fender deluxe humbucker, and a Tex mex bridge.
@WorshipGuitarist4life17
Thanks a bunch👍🏼. I might use the quarter because all i have is a protractor, the semicircle ruler, i only have that but I can use a quarter.

You’re an absolute legend mate. I feel like an absolute idiot for not thinking about the credit card stacks. Thank you!
@auntoneyofuntease6704
That's exactly what I did. But I Googled all coin heights first. I also cut an old gift card to the height I wanted to measure under the string.
@joedejesus6363
This is great advice and technique for the do-it-yourselfer, this is going to be very helpful👍
@clawhammer704
Measure at which fret with the three gift cards.
@briankeenan4901
Thanks Steve!
@k2000kidd1
Stacked two quarters together and sand enough off the Saddle now my action sits where my Yamaha plays like a Les Paul
@joesphbegley3088
You can use picks with a known thickness.
@michaelmendillo7513
