| With high action the notes will ring out well, but too high and itll be harder to press down the frets.
Low action allows for easier pressing of the strings but too low and there'll be fret buzz. Low action is better for tapping though you might want higher action for slapping.
Most people will go for as low as possible without any fret buzz...so I recommend you do that first, then evaluate where you wanna go from there
Some players with low action = billy sheehan, john entwistle
Some players with high action = matt freeman, flea |
