WHY can't i post? huhuhu

Whooooaaaa..... I guess i choose to post afterall, harharhar.. Nothing much to say about action though, just that higher actions give stronger attack but is less comfortable (for me). A machinist ruler with 32 fractions/inch can be used to measure action (from the lower edge of the string to the upper edge of the fretboard).

1/32= low action
2/32= medium
3/32 above= high action
