String height refers to the space between the strings and frets, 

and has an affect on playability.

String height is adjusted with the bridge and/or the saddle on the 

bridge. Adjust height by alternately turning the screws little by little 

on the left and right sides.

Set too high and the instrument is hard to play. Too low results in 

fret noise.

Adjust so that the space between the string and the last fret mea-

sures as follows:

NOTE:

 Be sure to perform any necessary adjustments to the 

truss rod before performing the following adjustments.
