Title
Repairing SR405QM Action (String Height)
Introduction
The height of your strings greatly effects playing. If the strings are too high, it may be difficult to finger the notes with your left hand, and certain techniques like fingerstyle (tapping) maybe be overly difficult. Conversely, if the strings are too low, they may hit the fret board producing distasteful sounds. Thus a happy medium must be found for each string.
Personally, I have my deepers strings much higher so I can play with gusto, while my high strings are very close to the fret board for ease when finger tapping. Everyone will have their own personal taste when it comes to string height.
