Hi Im new to playing the guitar and was wondering if someone can help me adjust the action?
I have an Epiphone Les Paul Black Beauty and will be using Skinny Top Slinky Bottom strings they are 10s 13s 17s 30s 42s amd 52s and I was wonder what the height of the strings should be I kinda like a low action. I was also wondering if you can tell me when you know the truss rod needs adjusting
I seriously advise you to take it to someone who knows what they are doing as you could do al lot of damage. Most musical instrument shops will have someone who knows about setting up guitars.
